Need someone who knows what they are talking about!?!
Question: Alright. Well first my question is this : Has anyone ever been through something like this? Is there any information you can give?
Alright.. some background on the situation, I Had been dizzy, missed periods, and etc. My doctor decided to run some tests. Well, the first tests she ran were hormones and did the cortisol to test my pituitary gland. I have been on Metformin since July and my period still hasn't came.. I have even lost 55 lbs. So these tests were to check out everything and make sure nothing else was wrong. Well all the tests came back normal except my aldesterone, it was two times as high as it should be, but they checked adrenal insufficiency and nothing was wrong with my adrenal gland. So my doctor checked my sodium , potassium, etc. Well my sodium was low- so she decided to do some sodium tests, and put me on a high sodium diet, for two days test my aldesterone and sodium, then put me on a low sodium diet and check my sodium and aldesterone again. Well she got those >>

See a "specialist" and get a second opinion. Many doctors have a "messiah complex" and think they can treat any ailment.
There are two rational explanations for this:
1. The doctor was pissed
2. You need salt more than most
In addition to this highly scientific response, there are countless irrational explanations, including:
1. you are an alien.
2. you are being punished by a higher force for crimes you commited in a previous existance
3. you once head a cheese and jam batch and danced naked whilst sweating furiously over matt goss, and since, your body can't get enough salty goodness
