Hi Elaine, two years have passed yet I still have tachycardia, palpitations, hypertension and arrhythmia. I'm only 24 :(
My Kaiser insurance got canceled because I could no longer pay for the high cost. During my last check-up these were the results:
Dec 19 2008
| T4 FREE |
1.6 |
(0.8-1.7 ng/dL) |
1. My question is, although my FT4 is near the upper limit and my TSH is 0.2, could these symptoms I'm having be attributed to subclinical hyperthyroidism?
2. My doctor told me that my Epinephrine is 3 units above the upper limit which is only mild, and my Norepinephrine was within range. My K and other electrolytes were normal. CREATININE was 1.04 (<1.34 mg/dL). He said that norepinephrine should have also gone high and he was puzzled with the result. What could this be, besides pheochromocytoma? What could have caused this high epinephrine?
3. Can lack of sleep, 2 years with poor sunlight exposure, frequent stress, excessive masturbation and poor diet lead to *chronic* *persistent* high epinephrine / hypertension symptoms instead of a random incident?
Thank you, Elaine you've saved many lives today.
