Re: waiting for rT3 to clear

[Guest guest]

how i feel about real salt: i don't use it, period. anything with iodine in it,

does wacky things to me. blah. Plus i need all the dang sea salt I can get.

well i suspect that isocort may not be enough for you. what are your saliva

results? And what are you doing for your low aldosterone?

ya really need to get that aldosterone thing fixed before anything. it goes

adrenals (aldosterone), thyroid, sex hormones. In that order.

well generally when aldosterone is low, renin is high with adrenal

insufficiency. So as you deal with your aldosterone issue, renin should follow.

http://www.labtestsonline.org/understanding/analytes/aldosterone/test.html

HIgh renin is the most likely culprit of your high bp since you're only on

isocort. But dealing with your adrenals more aggressively may also help the bp

issue (something stronger than isocort based on saliva results). Some ppl that

support adrenals don't end up needing aldosterone. Its a case by case basis. HC

has more of a mineral corticoid property so it indirectly helps aldosterone for

" most " ppl.

HOpe this helps.
