Re: What tests do I need to ask for from an Endo?

Hi Marie,

I have had salt cravings for a long time, and used additional salt to satiation, although it's somewhat blunted at the moment together with my appetite. I wonder if when it hits crisis point you don't notice the craving as much.

Do you treat aldesterone and electrolytes with just salt?

I don't have an appointment yet. In fact I've just got back from my GP who has prescribed anti depressant and sleeping pills. When I queried what to do if that didn't help he said a psychiatrist. I will probably have to pay to see an endo (UK), if I don't end up in ER first....

Took some pantethine today which may have helped a little. My clearance of adrenal supplements is pretty shit though so will see how that goes.

Thanks, Tweet
