Guest guest Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 My aldosterone was 2 and renin was 25..glucose was 154 and my doctor's office/kidney specialist called and said all normal..looking good My BP has been very high for years after being low all my younger years. If I had not have insisted on a copy of my lab work(which I have found is very important) I would not have known I have a problem.Awesome what our doctor's are doing to us.CAN NOT blame it all on BIG PHARM. We have a host of negligent,uncaring doctor's out there that have let me stay sick for over thirty years until I almost died with adrenal failure two years ago. (everything normal) go look at a Cushing's site and see what my docs have said is normal. Seems to have all gotten worse when medicare and medicaid came along.I think a lot of people saw it as an opportunity to get rich quick which a lot of docs did before Feds started somewhat checking on them.Wonder what took Feds so long to realize these programs were being ripped off? Kinda tells us what kind of people a lot of our doctor's are,huh? Sorry Dr.Geszler..you seem to be one in a million.Thank you for caring. I do pray for our doctor's everyday and the folks on this list.You will get better now that you have found Val. in N.C. 12c. Re: Why can't I stay hydrated?
