another stupid question i guess

val....claires bp is 116/59 today with her pulse as 72 just upon waking

isnt that a large gap between her systolic and diastolic pressure..??

this happened at doc the other day and she retook it and i am not sure of result?? could this be meds ?? her basal is still low?? does this mean too much T3 or too little??

any idea?? thanks...dawn

valerie...my daughter has raised her T3 meds by 6.25 in the morning and 6.25 in the nighttime dose...so she is now on 1 grain NT (divided) 18.5, 12.25, 12.25, 18.5 of T3 meds

she takes melatonin and bedtime....her basal temps are still low (seems they have not gone back up since she quit taking the zinc so i am wondering if these lower basals are the true numbers and before they were elevated due to cortisol?? is that possible??) anyway her basal is running 97.3

does she just continue to raise meds till that basal comes back up?? or do we sit here and see if the zinc effect wears off...cause her basal temps were higher before she took that zinc for 3 days at bedtime....
