Dopamine Test in Richland, Mississippi

Same day and Affordable Dopamine Test, Locations Nationwide

Request A Test offers a convenient and affordable Dopamine Test in Richland, . This test, also known as the Catecholamines test, measures levels of dopamine, epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine. These are three of the primary catecholamines. Catecholamines are hormones which increase when a person is under physical or emotional stress. The release of catecholamines into the blood has a number of effects including increased energy, dilated pupils, increased blood pressure, increased heart rate and heightened metabolism. Typically, once the source of the stress has passed, catecholamines are quickly metabolized and removed from the body through the urine. Catecholamine levels are normally low but they can be elevated by hormone-producing tumors known as pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas. These are endocrine tumors originating in the adrenal glands. While these types of tumors are typically benign, the excess hormones they produce can cause hypertension, severe headaches, anxiety, sweating, nausea, rapid heartbeat and tingling in the hands and feet. If left untreated, they can result in kidney damage, heart disease and an increased risk of heart attack or stroke.

This test is typically ordered when a person has symptoms of excess catecholamine production to help determine if a tumor is the cause of their condition. Catecholamine testing may also be done as a follow up to irregular results on a metanephrine test. Since a number of factors including the stress of having blood drawn can falsely elevate catecholamine levels and because they are eliminated from the body quickly, a blood catecholamine test may not always yield accurate results. For this reason, a Catecholamine Urine Test is often done along with the blood test or as a follow-up.
