Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 good story. Was there only one time that the K was low or is it low during spells. You clearly need some urine and blood tests for pheo. Your local Dr can do this. Your 4th child might have had a low thryoid problem if you were clealy low thryoid during pregnancy but this is routinely tested for at birth in most states now. The best time to collect a 24 hr urine for pheo is as soon as you can after a spell. See if your Dr can give you a special jug to have at home so you can begin immediatley during or after spell to get a 24 hr sample. May your pressure be low! Clarence E.
