  • My urine 5HIAA is elevated, does anybody else have this? Symptoms, illness related to it?
    Abnormal serotonin levels?

    • UQ2354  

      When I was diagnosed with Neuroendocrine Tumours (NETS or gastric carcinoids) they did a 5HIAA urine test. These tumours can release 5-HT which is metabolised to 5HIAA.

      These tumours are often described as 'indolent'. They tend to sit around not doing much.
