Guest guest Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 >>Yesterday my blood pressure registered low 90/58 which is not uncommon for me. Does this indicate anything in particulare regarding the armour thyroid and HC taht I am taking? I increased my HC and temps levelled out so I began increasing armour. I noticed my temps going down as I began to increase the armour. You mentioned a reverse T3 possibility when I posted my labs but those were from awhile ago. Just got the Rx for new labs. << With temps dropping when you increase thyroid, does it stay low, or come back up in 3-5 days? If it is staying lwo, it is low cortisol and an HC dose increase should be done. Also have you had aldosterone tested? TAHT low BP I am fairly certain would indicate a need for Florinef. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote
Guest guest Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Can you test for aldosterone with blood work? I can ask my Dr. to add that to the list of ones I am getting next week.
