Cortisol Deficiency test
Test at highest level (morning cortisol);
Cosyntropin test; (>18ug/dL at 60min is positive result)
Insulin tolerance test;
Cushing Diagnostic
Dexa suppression test

Excise tumor Suppress cortisol (Ketoconazole, metyrapone, mitotane) RU 486 (block glucocorticoids)
GH Test
glucose tolerance test (75) –> should lower GH
Insulin suppression test –> low glucose should increase GH
