Val, can you give me some advice?

[Guest guest]

New labs:

Sodium: 3.8

Potassium: 4.0

I am on 120 meq of k-dur and 1 tab of florinef+ sea salt. Extra salt just gives

me leg cramps, but not swelling. I took HC, t3, and florinef morning of test

and skipped potassium/salt. Should I increase florinef? If I did, I think I

will be on florinef only, no cortef. I have had a high pulse for 2 years and

some low sodium symptoms.

I would raise the Florinef with these labs.

Oops, I meant sodium 138. One more question. When I have not taken my florinef

the morning of test, my sodium is 143 which is good. If I do take florinef

before the test, my sodium drops to 138. My afternoon sodium levels are low

too(after eating, florinef etc.) Is it possible that sodium pools and this

explains my results?

Aldosterone moves sodium inot the cells from the blood. SO it makes

sense blood levels go down after taking Florinef.
