Edema and digestive issues adrenal or thyroid related??

[Guest guest]

Am hoping someone can provide some ideas on the following:

I have been experiencing edema in my legs daily now for some time. It actaully

has gotten a little better since I have been eating more sodium (strange) and

have decreased my potassium intake as well. I am just trying to get a read as

to is this related ro my thyroid or more of an adrenal issue.

I am pending labs so unfortunately I do not have much to offer in that regard,

however I can say that since increasing my Cytomel (and now having temps in the

97's as opposed to the 95's) and adjusting potassium there is some improvment.

In addition I have an ongoing problem with bloating after I eat on an almost

daily basis.

It became very pronounced with eggs and raw veggies...never had an issue until

the last 6 months.

Any ideas/suggestions welcome and thank you!

You might try some Betaine HCl wiht meals to help with the bloating. As

far as edema it can be from electrolyte imbalance or from low thyroid pr

both.
