Hello. sleep deprivation causes an increase in Cortisol levels which in turn, the increased Cortisol levels cause you to not be able to sleep. So most likely your levels are high right now because you haven't been sleeping, can't go to sleep even though you are tired, and your test will reflect the increased results.
