Hi,
First of all it's sad to know what you had been going through lately.
Based on the history you have shared, it's good that baseline workup is normal however serum cortisol levels, urinary catecholamines levels, as well as serotonin levels, needs to be reviewed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Saddiq Ulabidin, General & Family Physician
