Yes most common cause is renal artery stenosis that reduces blood supply to

kidney that stimulates the production of renin.

Ultrasound misses many with renal artery stenosis. Doppler ultrasound better

test if done right.

best test is an angiogram next is Computed tomographic angiography.

Isn't renin too high to be hyperaldosteronism? In fact low renin is why ACE &

ARB's don't work with hyperldosteronism. (Do you have the Lab Ranges?)

source: http://www.webmd.com/hypertension-high-blood-pressure/renin-16913?page=2

" Many factors can affect renin test results. Your doctor will talk with you

about any abnormal results that may be related to your symptoms and medical

history.

High values

A high renin value can mean kidney disease, blockage of an artery leading to a

kidney, 's disease, cirrhosis, excessive bleeding (hemorrhage), or

malignant high blood pressure is present.

Low values

A low renin value can mean Conn's syndrome is present. "

Another red head - though mine is fading now - I was about your age when I

first started having symptoms - I turn 50 in June and just had an adrenalectomy

in March - Please become an advocate for yourself and educate yourself as much

as possible. You do not have to lose years feeling old before your time.
