Have you had your cortisol levels checked? 24hr UFC test is best. If your 24hr UFC is above normal, then have Late Night Salivary Cortisol Tests done to make sure you don't have Cushing's Disease. If not, but you still have high cortisol, then it's probably "pseudo Cushings", then need to look into research being done with mifepristone (RU486) to knock out high cortisol and re-set HPA axis which would then correct excessive cortisol secretion.
