I have now been on ATDs for about 5 months. In the last few months I have noticed an increased desire for salty foods. I have, in the past, always preferred sweets until now. I go for chips, sunflower seeds (my daughter got me started on those) – stuff with salt. I faxed my endo this question, and he sent back a lab order to have my cortisol and ACTH checked before the next visit. He gave me no other explanation. I guess with all the salt, I am probably retaining water, too. I looked at some of the old posts here but they didn’t really cover this aspect. Anyone else ever had this problem? Thanks
