Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hey Nick, I am waiting to test my Ferritn and renin. I have low Aldosterone 2. My Cortisol is low except night. The morning is mid range, but not sure if that is accurate?? I know I had to spend at least two hours to get enough saliva. I had to have it in that day as I was also testing for progesterone, testosterone, estorgen. My doc is not comfortable with prescribing Flornef; so, I would like to find the results of the renin so I can seek another opinion before I really screw up my body. Who would recommend seeing to evaluate aldosterone and renin? Is this a kidney issue or addisons issue? R. Thank you for your time. No hurry in getting back. I know you are ill and working also....

This sounds like a set of questions Val needs to deal with, can you repost when she is back with us, I am not as adrenal adept as her Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 1. Do you have high or low blood pressure? You can get testing for sex hormones at www.econolabs.com. Ideally the adrenals should be dealt with first (aldosterone). YOu also need to test your potassium (which will help diagnose addison's). > > >Val & Nick, > > > >Pleae enjoy your time off; no hurry. > > I'm working away but well, waiting for my customer to make some > equipment work so have time at the moment. > > Val did e-mail at the weekend that she thought she might have a bug > coming on so she may be off sick this week, has anyone seen her on the > adrenals board? > > either that or there has been another big storm and she's lost net > connection. > > > >I am wondering about low back pain.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 my potassium is high Val says in dangerous. Doesn't that fluctuate from time to time though. My sodium is normal/low? Is what she mentioned. Re: low back pain 1. Do you have high or low blood pressure?You can get testing for sex hormones at www.econolabs.com.
