dizzygirl Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 hi folks.. i have a quick question.. are normetanephrine and matanephrine.. are these considered catecholamines as well? I'm thinking probably yeah.. b/c there is ephrine in the word.... I got records of labs from a few years back.. and these levels are considerably high.. but where not further looked into b/c it says " despite the fact that she "I" have a heart in excess of 170 beats per minute.. and she is allready on 100mg of metopolol twice a day... that they are going to let it go for now!"I was just looking for clarification on waht these are exactly..thankslinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom4cem Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Hi,I can't offer any explanation. I can say that my other labs after a 24hr urine came back normal except for the normetanephrine levels. They were not extremely high, but they were over the lab values. I was told everything was normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
