@novakp52 Hi,
Having no edema at age 73 is a very positive sign, and you’re absolutely right to be concerned about this.

How are your sodium levels being monitored, and at what frequency—laboratory blood tests or home urine strips?

I ask because the symptoms you’re describing closely match my own experience, including cold sensitivity, related to Addison’s disease (diagnosed in 1979) and aldosterone deficiency.

@swalex lab work up a 3 months with thyroid work up. If other labs are ran, I always ask for sodium level be on with it.
