Sorry if I missed something, but have you had aldosterone tested? My resting HR stayed close to 100 until I got on Florinef. Salt alone never affected it, and my BP was fine. Now my pulse is 78-84, lower than it's been in many years. FWTW Irene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A drop like that is screaming " Adrenals " at me. Are you on anything for them, have you had a saliva test??

Guest guest Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I'm weaning off Cortef b/c my doctor said now was the time. He said my 5mg dose in the morning caused me to have high serum cortisol. I know many say that taking the dose is not accurate in serum tests, but he wants me to wean. I'm now, starting today, down to 7.5mg a day. I was on 15m for most of 15 months. My temps today have been steady at 98.4 all day. I'm also on 3 grains Erfa and I'm not supposed to raise until I wean off Cortef completely and reassess symptoms. I do still have high RT3 though, but this doctor wants me to get off the Cortef as he thinks I have high cortisol and that could be causing the RT3. My ferritin is 71, and D 70, so those are good. I will be changing doctors soon though and I will see what happens then. For now I'm going to wean off and see how I feel. The drops seem to come when I'm in a cold environment, like AC in my car blowing on me, or in the house. > > >At times, my temp drops to 97.9 though too.
