pro hormones include pregnenolone and DHEA. There are many other forms of Vit B which are better than what you mentioned. The fact you can tolerate only a bit here and tehre is a danger sign. There are many forms of Vit C, some are much better than others, including ascobyl palmitate.you have only scratch the surface of the tool box. Cortisol test in a case like yours will confuse you more than help you at this time. Don't waste your time and energy pursuing test that only satisfy your logic and that which is useless as far as the body is concern in my view. Its the right thing to do at the wrong time.

Tehre is no shortage of doctors out there that thinks like you and agree with you.The key is to ask yourself whether you are getting better or not. If you are not getting better, finding a doc that thinks like you and follow you is repeating the same mistake you are making for yourslef. I know you are trying your best to figure out. If you have tried to do everything right and yet not get better, so waht is that telling you. Think about it. Your body is always right. Not your logic. YOu fail because of too much logic and not enough Science background to know the mechanic of how even the adrenal works, so how are you going to be effective in figuring out what to do , other than trying to patch up the symptoms when they come up and substituting one hormone for another. YOur body dotn like it. Its telling you loud and clear. YOu need to find a doctor who dont think like you, because you have already failed. until you abandon your current micro management thinking that is lab based, you will continued to be punished by your body. The choice is yours.

your situation is very simple. Takes about a few days to start feeling better, not years and lots of enegy like the way you are trying to do. Sorry I am a bit upset here. People like you call me everyday in desperate mood for advice, and much of it is self-inflicted, sad to say. I just feel so sad for you all. Most of the time, its a matter of days and weeks, not months and dragg on which only get worse.
