My blood pressure was slightly elevated when I saw him. I told him it had been fine until I had to deal with his staff. But for being brothers, that receptionist could not hold a job in my opinion! Usually the thing the doctor likes about me is my blood pressure. I have never had but occasional slightly elevated levels. So, overall the blood pressure is good. a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 Hi Feisty, Thanks for the welcome. I don't have the EXACT blood test results. I didn't write them down as I was NOT fully awake when I was talking to my Endo's nursing staff. :-) (I work 3rd shift. :-) ) NOW that I AM fully awake I'm going to call them back and get the EXACT results. I do know they checked my Hydration/Electrolite level and that was fine. (Due to muscle cramping they wanted to check it.) I have NOT thought about Armour. I don't know too much about it. This is going to be my FIRST TIME on Synthroid so I'm not even sure how that's going to go. :-S I just can't tell you how much I feel like crap, but am glad to know what's finally been wrong with me. I'm hoping to find releaf from the Synthroid, but I'm also scared to take it because it's a Hormone drug. Thanks again for your welcome, Becca > ((((((((((((((((((((Becca))))))))))))))))))))))))) > Welcome, Welcome! > I am Feisty, one half of the thyromusketeers and co-owner of this > group.You certainly do have the symptoms of hypo now!I wonder if you are one > of those that has/had both Graves and Hashimoto's. > Have you thought about being on Armour?
