How hot is it where u are? Are u dashing better or the same. Tiped sad Send form miiPhone ;-)May your pressure be low!CE Grim MDSpecializing in DifficultHypertension

am a 56 yo female who has been on spiro 100 since last Oct. My bp's

have been around 130/80 for the last 7 months.oid

I also have Hasimoto's thryoid and am on several meds to keep it

normal. my doctor also put me on carb blocks, PGX (fiber supplement),

along with my liptor, vitamin d cream twice a week. My tsh went up to

45.9 in March and it was changed to armour thyroid 60 and levathroxine

88 mg. Since April 2 I was able to loose 15 lbs and brought my blood

pressure down to 120/76.

life was good until approx May 11 when my weight was up a pound.. not

to concerned.. In the follwing weeks up more but today up 4 pounds in

one week. I feel dizzy and nauseous all the time. my blood pressure

was 108/68 today and that was after I accidentally skipped my spiro

last night at bedtime sleep is bad... just can't sleep more than 3

hours total a night. even though it is in the 90's I am not sweating

at all.

Labs were drawn last Thursday but due to a new contract provider at my

family providers office, the turn around time is now 2 weeks.

Suggestions please

Don't think you gave us the right information on your TSH test. range should be

like 3.5 to 5.. If it is 45.9 lab may use different units then most labs do.

Even if it is 4.5 this could be to high for you they should be testing your T3

and T4 as well.

Blood Na tells little about body sodium. You may want to add some salt back or lower Spiro working with your team. Tiped sad Send form miiPhone ;-)May your pressure be low!CE Grim MDSpecializing in DifficultHypertension
