Aldosterone/Renin results and florinef question

[Guest guest]

Hi Val-I recently got my aldosterone/renin results back. They were

done correctly according to J.

Aldosterone:

6 (4-30) L

Na (139)L

Renin:

1.3 (3-24)L

K (3.6)L

Last summer(hot) I was on HC...long story and felt terrible. I felt a

little better when I got to 25mg HC. I think low aldosterone was the

reason I was dizzy, blurry vision, sweating, couldn't walk straight,

very fatigued. I don't recall re-taining any fluid. What do you think?

I'm not sure when exactly to add some florinef, if I need it, when I

start HC again. Last time, around 15-20mg HC, was when I felt my

worst and I'm afraid to go through that again. Thanks-Crystal
