How high Aldo-renin ratio, high bp and hypnotrimia (121) are associated?

[@kristeenbarker]

This is such an interesting question. LOW aldosterone/hypoadrenalism is associated with hyponatraemia, but i'm not aware of connection with high aldosterone.

[@keithkibby3637]

So what does it mean when my Aldosterone/Renin Activity calculation is high at 103.0?

[@kristeenbarker]

So when this is high it means the screening test is positive and a referal to endocrinology is indicated to evaluate whether there is true primary hyperaldosteronism or not. Hope that helps :)
