I am not a doctor so don't accept anything I say as true.

Cortisol is a stress hormone.... So if your AN is stressful your Cortisol Levels will go up.

But don't blame it all on the AN, there are lots of things that can cause high cortisol levels. Being overweight or being a diabetic doesn't help.
