I'm coming to terms with that. I went yesterday to my cardiologist and discussed options. He said we can try to up my salt to 6 grams and to call him with in a few days to if I'd like to try the meds. I'm preparing myself with knowledge. I'm a little worried about taking florinef. Since I feel that I could be compromised by a pathogen being that several of us are effected with this at the same time, I am worried about putting a steroid in my body.
He mentioned midrodrine, but I think he uses just the florinef, and adds the midrodrine if necessary. Anything you can share about this topic is very welcome!
