Fludrocortisone Changes?

Hey all,

 

I started fludrocortisone about 3 years ago now, went slowly up to 0.05 to 0.075 as it dropped my potassium to 3.0, I am on 12 sando k potassiums which held it at 3.5!!!

Lately, I feel a lot worse symptoms like I used to, I am now on 0.1mg florinef but with great potassium levels of 4.2+- with the same potassium dosage!

I'm thinking, my body has slowly shut down it's own aldosterone production and the 0.1mg is holding it at what it would be naturally, so I need more to get back

to feeling better, would this make sense/ do you agree?

It would explain in my opinion the symptom worsening plus rising potassium levels.
