What test should I ask the doc for?

March 19, 2008

Hi, I am going to give my doc one more chance. I have an

appointment tomorrow and I need some suggestions on what test I

should have him run or what direction I should go in. I have hashis

(don't know if it was caused by an accident I was in. I was 7 and

they diagnosed the thyroid at 9 after 2 years of extreme migraines)

I am currently on 8-9 pellets of Isocort and 11/2 grains of armour.

Dhea of 5. I tested positive for the eye test and my blood pressure

lying was 91/60 and standing 100/61. These are the only tests I

currently have:

Wbc 16.5 3.8-10.8 High

RBC 5.28 3.80-5.10 High

Hemoglobin 16.4 11.9-15.9 High

Absolute Neutrophiles 13992 1500-7800 High

Free t4 .6 .8-1.8 Low

Ferritin, Serum 56 10-154

FSH 6.4 1.5-9.1

Urea Nitrogen, Serum 26 7-25 High

Bun/Creatinie Ratio 28.3 6-22 High

Sodium, Serum 140 135-146

Potassium, Serum 108 98-110

Most of these ranges are in the norm; however, the doc said they

indicated that I was dehydrated. Every time I take a test they say

I am dehydrated.

Last week I tried to raise armour but was unsucessful as I felt I

was too hyper. The last 3 days my temps have stayed up and averaged

about 98.3, but I still feel really bad. I have anxiety and nausea

first thing in the am (take 5 Isocort between 6-10am), I am dizzy

and fatigued, ache all over and have periods of heartburn with what

feels like hyperventaling also adrenal surges once in a while. I

took 1/4 tsp of sea salt a little while ago and it seemed to ease up

the aching.

This is so confusing, is it high or low cortisol/thyroid. Should I

be looking at the aldosterone and renin?

Thanks, Sorry so long

I
