well from your tests we see 2 things

1- You have PA ( ARR ratio ) I hope you are already on spiro and dashing

(dashing is the keyword )

2-You have an elevated cardiac risk.

Other things that seem to be abnormalish are the GFR for instance it's high but

that's cause of the PA I think, considering that your potassium was taken

correctly it is ok

  • 2 weeks later...

ive been told that if you take T3 only meds that your TSH will always be too

low???

i seem to be having horrid issues with controlling my pulse blood pressure and

hence my medication.....

im so sorry you had to go through all that :( i think i may try to lower my meds

and increase really slowly until my heart adjusts??? the only problem is that

going lower than 20mcg gives me more hypo symptoms..like swelling weight gain

insomnia lethargy etc.... and going higher makes my pulse rocket :( what can i

do?

my GP said i was going hyper and lowered my meds but as ive said above that also

had side effects..... so im stuck between a rock and a very hard place :(....

oh sheesh im so sorry. i really dont know much about all this but thank you so

much for explaining :) thats really nice of you

Well i live in the Mediterranean and my diet is already high in salt...and i am

eating even more salt than normal because my blood pressure is on the low side

too. the only thing i have not done is drink the salt with some water twice a

day....do you think this may help??

even after eating more salt my sodium levels have not increased at all only my

potassium has gone down slightly....i will post tonight :)

spiro....right ive never heard of this...and you guys take this to lower your

blood pressure???

i find that lowering my thyroid medication lowers my blood pressure even further

85/54 but increasing the meds increases my blood pressure slightly to maximum of

109/69 if im lucky the problem is my pulse goes mad at 0ver 100 bpm...so i dont

know what to do...do any of you here suffer with hashimotos disease or

hypothyroidism??

my Endocrinologist and GP said my sodium aldosterone rennin and potassium where

fine...(ill never get help at this rate) ive been like this for ages....ive

actually had problem since i was 14 ...but i always thought it may be issues

with sugar never even heard of sodium problems

My dad got very sick the day before yesterday and i had to take him to hospital

twice after 12 hours of hearing him scream in pain...hi blood pressure went up

and he went red and sweaty i was so scarred because he had a major heart attack

in the past and also has diabetes high cholesterol angina etc.....

they inserted a catheter because he could not pass urine :( poor man they took

out a whole litre....

when all was over after being so stressed and being up for many hours with him i

finally collapsed in my bed....yesterday was horrible...i felt like a truck had

run over me...i had to keep gasping for air i was so tired...my eyes where

blurry i could not think or talk...i could barely eat my muscles felt like lead

and they hurt i felt so weird....this morning i couldnt wake up...still feel

like i need air i feel dizzy and so exhausted...i felt more exhausted than

yesterday....even though ive slept 2 full nights :(...

do you think this could be due to lowish sodium?? I was scared i might pass out

and i dont even know why!

hi :) i dont know what pheo is?? unless its a type of tumor or something?? and

no ive not been tested for it..how do you test this??

ive never has K tested is that vitamin K?

my blood pressure normally drops when i stand...but not always..only when i feel

worse (which is alot of times)....and my pulse increases drastically....(most of

the time my blood pressure wont take the readings when i stand because i cannot

stand still..i can no longer keep my balance or keep still on one spot...i

always have to keep moving or i feel really sick...is this normal???

I get up to pee at night when i feel worse as well....the worst is getting up to

pee every single hour of the night which makes me feel really bad by

morning.....though i must say as i increased my thyorid medication i wasnt

peeing as much...(but my GP has lowered it again so im wondering if ill start

the night time urination again) i pee everytime i drink anything at all. and

they i feel really thirsty....GP said to drink 3 litres of water a day to

increase my blood pressure and lower my heart rate! I cant seem to increase my

blood pressure no matter what i do :(

Dr Grim. not to worry about kickbacks and me causing the insurance rates to go

so high. My husband lost his job which gives me no healt insurance other than

tricare. My the time any amount is left that tricare covers, it comes out

cheaper for me in the long run to be a self paying customer for these tests.

We have found he longer I go on the same meds without having my tsh 3 and 4

tested along with a few others like cortisol, the worse my health becomes

Sorry I am not the what you consider the typical patient.

there is only One expert here and One hospital....He refuses to refer me for a

second opinion to the UK NHS...and he is the only one that can send me :/...he

only sends me to a GP who gives me 15 minutes in which i try to explain how i

feel and he tried to guess what to do with me and my medication...i feel like a

lab rat....

how would i know if i had a pituitary problem?? the first doctor i ever saw was

in SPain he was an immunologist...he suspected that i had panhypopituitary (i

dont even know what this is) then he ruled it out and said just Hashimotos and

Most labs in US give Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate grater then 60 with no

high end. So not sure if it can be to high or what a high rate would mean.

How are they checking Cortisol? Best way is 24 hour urine. If checking blood or

spit can change a lot with time of day.

As Dr Grim says not an easy thing to figure out. What you need as to find

someone like Dr Grim that looks at all that is going on with you not just one

body system. If you had the funds and your Dr would work with Dr Grim this would

be a good way to go.

This is the second reference I've seen to getting direct help from Dr. Grim...is

there a post somewhere about how one would go about doing that?

Max, I'm sure the number is something over 89 as the old measurement for CKD

Stage 2 was eGFR = 60-89 (I don't recall ever seeing a high number.) Check out

the address in msg. 35771 for the National Kidney Disease's explaination.

- 64 yo morb. ob. male - 12mm X 13mm rt. a.adnoma with previous rt. flank &

testicle pain. I have decided against an adrenalectomy at this time since

Meds. are working so well. Current BP(last week ave): 122/73

Other Issues/Opportunities: OSA w Bi-Pap settings 13/19, DM2. and PTSD.

Meds: Duloxetine hcl 80 MG, Mirtazapine 15 MG, Metoprolol Tartrate 200 MG,

81mg asprin, Metformin 2000MG and Spironolactone 50 MG.
