Charlie said:Quick note before I nod off.
Stopped the salt supplementing today and only used salt on food, still had the hard beating heart. So, I do not think it was salt. Also had a head ache for the second half of the day today and still do, wondering if its from lack of salt.
Took 1/8th a pill at breakfast today. Like I said, still having hard beating heart, just not as bad. Will decided in the morning how much to take.
Charlie-
Sorry about the hard heart-pounding.
Now, back to something we were talking about some weeks back:
it would be helpful to know more about just what this "hard heart-pounding" is.
You say it is NOT elevated heart RATE, right?
As you know, I've wondered if it has more to do with blood pressure.
So...when you are in the midst of these "hard heart-pounding" episodes,
I would wish for as much data as possible.
During them:
-what is the pulse rate?
-what is the temperature?
-what is the blood pressure?
-what times of day or night do they occur?
-what did you have to eat before?
-what supps did you take before?
-is there any relationship between time of taking thyroid sup and the hard heart-pounding?
-was there any clear or unusual psychological or emotional stressor preceding the HHP (from here forward!)?
