What Causes Mood Swings And Severe Anger?
My best friend has been having severe mood swings for the past year. She gets angry about every little thing. Her blood test showed abnormal Aldosterone & abnormal potassium. She is 56 yrs old & i has passed menopause. Other than her over reacting anger she seems very normal. What could this mean? Her Dr told her she just needs anti anxiety drugs.
