Thanks to a very kind collaborator, i have some copeptin (marker of AVP) data, compared to my pre-vaccine measures👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

First a bit of background about copeptin (AVP)

AVP is part of the HPA ("stress") axis. briefly, high AVP = high ACTH = high cortisol

AVP also regulates hydration: low fluid/high salt = high AVP = kidney reabsorption of water = pee less = stay hydrated
1. What i find MOST interesting is that under the most controlled conditions (9am, no fluid), my copeptin was much lower than pre-vaccine on the same day my cortisol came back much lower than pre-vaccine

Pt 1. A fair while back we had a rather exciting delivery...What have we been up to?1/ Image
