MDJunction to me

HiddenButterfly"All I can say is that this has been the best place ever. It has been six to seven months since I joined, and I have learned so much. I now believe in myself and accept myself on a completely different level. The people on MDJunction has been so supportive and accepting that I have been able to adopt it into my personal life. That has reduced a lot of stress in my life. Thanks to all." (HiddenButterfly)

I've had eczema since age 8. I found out today that I might have Conn's, although considering the number of hypertension meds I am on, I may have a false positive - however some of the other symptoms fit a longer term diagnosis (low potassium even before I used beta blockers - weakness on calcium channel blocker).

I worry that my real difficulty is not Liddle's, since I have a child currently complaining of leg pain with exertion.

I find the eczema is controlled if I am very wary of iodized salt and of eating fish that is not absolutely fresh. If I eat fish that is not, I get a eczema from histamines on surface of fish - so I am not allergic to the fish itself, but the stuff growing on it when it is dead. Which means I can eat Oysters freshly dead but not Lox.

Hope this helps.
