Guest guest Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Don't worry about the charts. What's important is that you get back to your lowest and feel good about yourself. It is harder for short people to hit goal I believe. Just like left handed people make changes. My younger son is left handed, his girlfriend right handed and they have to set at a table to eat with the none eating arms next to each other or they are always be hitting each other with the elbows. We all adapt in life. So don't worry about the chart, adapt what is good for you. Take care.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 In what way is the sodium/potassium unbalanced? Which one is higher/lower then it should be with adrenal insufficiency?I'm not sure, she didn't really specify. Generally when I go to doctors, they treat me like a kid since I'm still technically in pediatrics, and I don't get too many in-depth explanations unless I really dig for them. Instead I get asked if I need to go 'pee-pee' or if I'm still having 'loose poops.' =)Also Alyssa, did you doc mention using any non-big-gun meds, like Lialda, Sulfasalzine, or Rowasa? I asked her about that. She said that when inflammation goes on for so long uncontrolled it can be much harder to bring under control, and that she didn't think those would be strong enough for me. Peace =)Alyssa 15 yoUC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
