This site has helped me to to talk to my new doctor and has given me hope. I still feel crappy, but I went to the doctor today and he actually listened. He said that while the numbers are important, my well-being and how I feel is also important. He said that although my TSH is at 14, if I feel great, he can live with the numbers because everyone is different. He also said, and rightfully so, that if my TSH level goes creeps up to 40, he will have to address the issue. I totally understand.
In the meantime, before he changes my dose of Synthroid again, he is going to do a lot of tests on my blood, including the T4, T3, Reverse T3, Cortisol and some other blood tests. Once the results are back we will go from there.
It is so nice to have hope for the first ime in 20 years.
I'll keep you posted.
