Undiagnosed and from Canada

[Guest guest]

Hi There - I am another one from Canada that can identify with your frustration

with our Health Care System.  I can identify with all of your syptoms and more

but none of them happen at the same time.  I am seeing an internalist in Calgary

now that seems to be on track with me.  I have been put on spironolactone

because my renin was a bit low but I have not been diagnosed with Conn's.  The

next time I see my doctor I will get the lab results so I can put them on this

site and see what Dr. Grim says.  In my case, I think I have heredary Conn's

since my brother had it and our symptoms are so similar and started to happen

about the same time.  I truly believe that because I am a women, I have not been

taken seriously.  My brother has been feeling great since his surgery and I am

still waiting to be diagnosed!  In the mean time I am still frustrated, feel

better than I used to but still have episodes that leave me tired, weak and just

plain tired of

it all.  I know this is such a cliche but Hang in There and take one day at a

time.  Where abouts in Canada do you live?  You can respond to me in person or

in this group.  Take care
