Reverse thinking

Now I wonder, since treating my adrenals for 2.5 years now and still not achieving results, if I could be "over stimulating them.
10 years ago, I had exteme low levels of salivary cortisol.
But, in the last 2 years on several occassions, I had blood reading that were high, and salivary, were low and than normal, yet symptoms have always been weak, depresison, anxiety, low blood Sugar symptoms, etc.

I was put on hydrocortisone to help regulate the HPA axis loop between the brain and the adrenals. Maybe it is to overstimulating now. I'm on such low dose though, 3mg. 3 times a day.

My blood seratonin leverls were also so low, they were out of range. I wonder how accurate blood test is for this.
So, I was put on 5-HTP two months ago, I'm still only taking between 25-50mg. day.
Now I read on Dr. Ray Sahelin site that it has been tested on a group of people that 5-HTP increases cortisol, for they did the saliva tests during this study. I'm so confused.
