Brief Answer:
hello can you send me complete report pdf files.

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, I did review your concern.
at a preliminary glance the levels of various blood parameters you mentioned seem largely within normal range.
however every lab have different reference values, so can you please send me pdf file of your report which will have reference ranges for all the reports.
postural tachycardia can be due to many causes and eitiologies can be hard to define.
as you said salt is a good idea, I would also advice discussing with your doctor about pressure compression stockings for legs and certain medications like mitodrine or low doee fludrocortisone therapy.
for your blood query, I will be in a better position to tell once I get to see complete reports.
wish you all the best. Awaiting your reply
sincerely,
dr parth desai.
