I would ask the doctor you are seeing to prescribe you 20MG HC. Whilew

your resuts are certainly not the worst I ahve seen they are not where

they need ot be either. Correcting your hypothyri wil probabyl help the

BP and the atenolol shoudl be replaced wiht a an ace inhibitor type BP

med Atenolol will lower thyroid.

Thanks ,

Do you take all 20mg in the am? Or do you split it up through the day?

Do you know what higher aldosterone levels mean?

I could take an ace inhibitor, but I need a beta blocker to manage

the high pulse rate. Have you heard of Tarka? My sister has high

pulse and bp and seems to feel that it is doing the trick. Any

suggestions? I know you had a bad experience with a beta blocker. I

would like to get off of them, since they increase my fatigue, but

nothing else seems to control my pulse rate.

Thanks so much!

The high Aldosterne may be the cause of your high BOP but I am not sure

how they treat it. Have oyu had sodium and potassium levels checked?

With high Aldosterone you may have high sodium.

Oh and the HC you would split up during the day. Taking it all in the AM

would insure you would run low later in the day.

Yes, my sodium was 144 (normal being 135-146). It was on the high end

of normal. My potassium was 4.9 (normal being 3.5-5.3). What's weird

is my aldosterone was low normal a year ago. Any idea what would

cause the swing to out of range high?

Thanks!

There is alot of controversy abotu whether aldosterone reacts to ACTH or not.

Some say it does others say no. I would say if you have low cortisol and not

treating it, you most liekly have high ACTH which could stimulate high

aldosterone. Then when you treat the cortils it can pusthj the aldosterone too

low until the adrneals get back inthe swing of things and can produce normally

themselves. but this is all just theory, as no one seems ot have these answers.

So, Val, are you saying that treating with HC can lower aldosterone?

My doctor told me that in my recent visit -- but I was skeptical.
