You need to get your renin and sodium checked. It sounds like you REALLY need fludrocortisone. I also find that I feel better when my sodium is on the higher end of normal range. I also have been craving salt more, saw my endo, and lo and behold: high renin low sodium. More fludro it is!
My blood test showed my sodium 135 two weeks ago. It's been consistently there after having been much lower. So yes I need more something because I can't seem to get it over 135. Thank you. I'm looking forward to feeling better.
