[NTH-Adrenals]Re: aldosterone

[Guest guest]

Well I certainly have fluid retention and HBP.I go to my kidney doc.

the 12th.Will have her check my aldosterone.

I don't know what is going on with Yahoo but I have had no mail on

digest all day and I miss you gals,lol.

I try to read everyday but most days I don't have time to write

much.Hospice has started with my husband and I am trying to take care

of him, sell the house and cope with my adrenal/thyroid and kidney

problems..Can we say stress?????

I asked my GP if he didn't think my cortisol was down because my left

kidney just seems to have disappeared and he said not necessarily...I

said you think my adrenal gland is just floating around somewhere in

there with a life of its own??? LOL..can't help laughing at these docs

sometimes.

Please pray for my hubby and me.

Thanks,

in N.C.

and where there's fluid retention there's high blood pressure?

Well with high aldosterone you may have serious fluid retention issues

wiht even physiological doses 0f HC. That would be my

worry.
