Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Your body BP control systems are reacting to your suddenly lowered BP and it will take 30-90 days to stabilize out. Read Guyton's section on the baro receptor. Please get the complete pathology report and keep it for your and your families files. You should share it with us if you want. Any post op measures of K, renin and aldo? List all drugs you are taking now. Would assume you are off all BP meds now.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 BTW congrats on your success and I hope we have the Gaz's story in detail somewhere. If not please give it to us when you are up to it. Did you have AVS before I dont recall. You could share your good Drs with our files for future folks in your area.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Oh thats good news iv'e been a little worried about my pulse. I am completely off all my pills at the moment, was left on co approval 300mg but bp hit 96/57 so they took me off that too. I have given u my storey a few time before now As regards to my Path report my endo wouldnt show me it but said it was fine. Saw the surgeon on Thursday he showed me it and said he will send me a copy so i will post it when it arrives. I dont think its as good as it could be because i remember it saying a 50mm growth with nodules in the main mass and outer cortex and it mentioned the gland showed signs of hyperplasia so im pressuming i could have future problems, all seems fantastic at the moment thou. I DIDNT have AVS done pre surgery they didnt feel it necessary. Re: High Pulse rate Your body BP control systems are reacting to your suddenly lowered BP and it will take 30-90 days to stabilize out.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 , my best wishes to you for your continuing good health. Is your high heart rate bothersome for you? It seems we have a problem getting people to write their stories and put them into the " Stories " section of the Files. Dr. Grim, would it be kosher to capture people's stories and put them there? I'm afraid we might upset some. While I really appreciate hearing the stories, it is difficult to go back and try to remember. I think, especially for new people, being able to read the stories in the Files section would be really informative. There is virtually no way to go back through over 10,000 posts and find the stories. I feel very indebted to the people who have posted here and wish to make it easier for those who follow.

Chances are neither he nor surgeon actually looked at the slides. I always do. Being from MO and all. It would be nice to set up a central reading programs where slides could be read by real experts in the adrenal histopathology arena. > Saw the surgeon on Thursday he showed me it and said he will send me a > copy so i will post it when it arrives.

The path you give does suggest bilateral hyperplasia and expect a slow return of BP and K problems but may be years. Reason we do AVS but if K and BP was not controlled this is a reasonable intervention. If AVS had shown bilat disease I would have tried harder with different drug combos but sounds like you have made a big improvement.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 We will need to tell them how to add their stories to the file and how to update it as time evolves. Will most be able to do this. I am not sure I can for example.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Dr Grim i asked a question about 2 months ago about a noticable change in my pulse rate post surgey. I had my surgery 3 months ago now and bp readings are quite stable however my pulse dosnt seem to have stabilised at all. I remember you saying it takes 90 days or so to do this, and its been that long now. For example, did some weights thisafternoon and bp was 135/90 pulse 90 after doing several sets, just taken my bp from rest now and readings 120/84 pulse 110, its starting to worry me again any ideas on this.

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 I would consider these as normal. Are you sure your device records pulse accurately? Some do not. Are you taking any meds??
