Conn's syndrome mnemonic

Hi. I keep forgetting that Conn's syndrome is hyperaldosteronism. Can you help me out with this?

Sure! :D

The N's are for sodium - Hypernatremia!

The C makes a K for potassium, which is less than the number of N's, therefore, hypokalemia!

Also, Na+ is sodium. A could remind you of Aldosterone.
AL could remind you of ALkalosis.

That's all!
