Guest guest Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 >Can my high pulse of 120 bpm, loss of power in Arms and legs, and pressure on the chest just be a panic attack Yes, adrenaline can do that to you. If it were low sodium it would be there all the time unless you added some salt Have you written out the list like I suggested??

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Which list Nick?I doubt it was adrenaline - I just doubt it! I had just taken 10 mg HC before I left for the store! How can it be adrenaline if I take 20 mg at noon, 10 mg at 4 pm, and then boom this happens!BP at the ER 6 hours later (that's how long I had to wait!) showed 130/90. Which is maybe a tad too high but nothing extreme. I bet it was much higher when the pulse thing happened. I did drink some mineral water throughout the evening and the pulse got better. I am still weak in my arms and legs tho. A bit better but still.. I don't like this! >Can my high pulse of 120 bpm, loss of power in Arms and legs, and pressure on the chest just be a panic attack Yes, adrenaline can do that to you.

I had panic attacks 10 years ago and what i felt today was nothing like it. It happened during shopping for food. The bag got very heavy and my heart beat harder and faster nd it lasted 1 hour! Sure panic attacs lasts for a few minutes, the ones I had before anyway. I am thinking Florinef and elevtrolytes and liquid balance in my body. I cant accept that this is just from my mind! I am sure florinef and salt intake is doing this. Too bad i am left alone to handle this.Sendt fra min iPhone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 , I have had adrenaline rushes and it sounds JUST like what you are describing. My heart rate would go up to like 100+ or so, my BP went up from 118/78 to 140+/98+, etc...felt short of breath, weak...it was definitely an adrenaline rush. I would drink water, but drinking is something that is good to calm down. Years ago when I went to counseling (because my quack of a doc back then said I had to in order for him to continue seeing me), the counselor told me that drinking water changes our breathing, and will calm us down. These will come out of no where. Another thought...perhaps your potassium is low due to the Florinef. Sound like electrolyte issues as well. Make your list for your doctor so when you call him, you can discuss it all. From: Gibcast Sent: Sunday, March 21, 2010 8:19 PM To: RT3_T3 Subject: Re: What to do..

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Tnx for the reply. Cant type too much on the iPhone, but electolytes from tody Are in: sodium 140, potassium 4.3, and neutrophiles at 8 5.9 which is above the 1.7 - 5.7 range. Can this explain something?

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Then I would think those would not be a true reading about what your body is retaining since you could have eaten something salty, drank salted water, eaten a banana with potassium in it, etc....

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Maybe I'm just overdoses on steroids? 40 mg HC and 0.05 mg Florinef - Maybe it's too much for me? I have the worst and weirdest symptoms! Warm all over, head feeling like it's gonna explode, pain in eyes, sensitive to light and sounds, etc. Why do I feel like I'm a walking mystery? And nobody can help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
