Default I like this doctor

I think it's been enough days to rule out the high salt and staying hydrated solution to my problem.
Allergies are horrendous and definitely contributing to my dizziness and crappy feeling, but the salt.... all its doing is making me feel like a fat mess.

So, I called the doctors office and the nurse spoke to him and relayed back to me my choices of florinef and midrodrine, briefly what they do and which I would like to try. She said the florinef has a few more side effects, so I decided to go with the midrodrine first- especially because of all the blood pooling.
I really like that this doctor wasn't so pompous and let ME have the choice. Some of them are such control freaks. I'll keep him

Anyway, he started me out on 5 mg tablets. I haven't tried yet because I'm going to the allergist tomorrow with my bag of drugs and diagnoses list, to see if she can help me sort out which angle to start from and to get a second opinion on the asthma diagnosis. Hopefully some relief soon
