Val or Nick,aldosterone test ,please take a look

[Guest guest]

I just received my aldosteroen test and I'm shocked.

Here is my result.

Blood test aldosterone at 8a.m. 23.9 reference 1.0-16.0

I'm completly lost.All my blood test for electrolytes are with a low

levels.close to the lowe range sodium and high,even one of the last results over

the top range potassium.

How is posible to get this high level of aldosterone? From what I have read if

that is the case I should have a very low potassium levels and mine are so high

in a serum blood test.Is it possible that my RBC potassium is very low and I do

need potassium? But from what I have asked you and your respond a hig levels of

serum potassium is very dangeres,so how in the world I should be able to start

taking a potassium if it's very low in RBC ,wich I will do very soon if my serum

test shows very high levels of potassium.Please help.

Thanks
