Bartters Syndrome

The story of Rhonda

I have Bartter Syndrome, a kidney problem thats inherited by recessive gene and low blood pressure, low potassium, low salt probably low magnesium.  Its diagnosed by specilised blood tests. I spent 2 separate weeks in Greenslopes  hospital in Brisbane Australia. I had blood tests every day morning and night and I had to sleep flat all night and had my blood taken flat and then standing. Its makes you weak and makes you tired and cranky and you have low amount of blood in your body. I was diagnosed in 1993 and now l take many tablets a day – 5 in the morning and 5 with my evening meal.
Keeps me well with energy.
Very rare apparently and discovered in the 1970s.
Thanks Dr Bofinger and Prof Gordon
