BUMP Re: Val: newest potassium & sodium labs

[Guest guest]

Hey Val. See below.

1.My BP has been anywhere from 110/60 to 142/80. Odd huh? It has been super HOT

here in VA. Do you think I should stay at 1 1/4 tabs of Florinef or go bk down

to 1 tab?

2. Do you think an addl 20 meq of Klor-Con would be good? Should I dose 20meq

every 2-3 hrs or 40 meq every 6 hrs?

3. Do you think it's possible I may only need 60 mcg Cytomel as maintenance

dose? Or should I try & go bk up to the 75 mcg after my 2nd Iron IV wk after

next?

Thnx again so very much Val. I look forward to your reply.

I would hold where oyu are for a coupel wekes and getan average BP. NO

it is not odd for one ot fluctuate that much, mine does and I htink most

people's does as well. It depends on time of day, when you last took

meds and what oyu are doing and even what oyu are thinking. You need ot

retest potassium wiht every increase as too high is dangerous. If i is

not too high try increase. It is possible oyu ojnly need 60mcg but not

likelly.
