I was really unsucessful with my doc today getting any new testing

done. He stated that all my symptoms sounded like I was having

alost of adrenal issues and as I tried to push him he said that he

didn't think I needed to worry about my adrenal function. UGH!!

He did fax me a test that I had in o4 prior to taking anything but

synthriod. These tests were not done fasting from salt. Do they

indicate anything?

Aldosterone 11 4-31

Renin 24 No range listed

Acth 30 .3-60

I asked him to test the aldosterone and renin and he refused saying

that they were " tricky testing " What does that mean!! Its a

simple blood test!!! I also asked him if I could have damaged my

pituitary in my accident resulting in the hypo and adrenal

problems. He said it was not common and it was probably a very

emotional experience for a 7 year old which probably resulted in the

problems. I also asked him about staying on the Isocort long term

and if the ecanacia (sp) would cause problems. He just laughed and

said I had the opposite problem with too many white blood cells.

Sorry to vent, but I was really hoping that he was coming around and

really wanted to get to the bottom of the problem. The end result

was he gave me a homeopathic med and told me to get a back rub at

night to relax my adrenals. :twisted:

Thanks April
