I go to an endocrinologist for my thyroid. Did they suggest you see a specialist?

I remember sitting in my car after coming out of a psychiatrists office and being told by HIM that I wasn't depressed. I sat there crying for a long time. The I remember getting angry and beginning to shake so badly I didn't think I go even drive. It must have taken me a half an hour to calm down.
Bottom line? Doctors of all kinds can be royal jerks! There is another post on the board right now with someone dealing with your same problem, that is, doctors that will not LISTEN to them and take them seriously. Keep looking for a doctor who will listen to you. You know your body best, and if you are having thyroid problems then hang in there and keep pushing back until someone does the right thing for you. Do not just roll over and let this problem go. keep pushing until someone treats you the way you believe you need to be treated.
Take care, BB

Can you go to the ER and have them run some tests, even if you know what the problem is. All hospitals, I believe, have an in- house doctor and I'm sure he or she can give you a prescription for what you need. it's worth a try. I hate to hear you hurting like this. Let us know what the final outcome is. Hugs GB

Thanks everyone. I thoughtabout the er but i doubt they would do anytjimg and then id be out aLOT of $$ i will have yo suffer until iget my labs done. Amd just pray that my depression doesnt get any worse. I wanted to just stay in bed all daytoday :(

When are you getting your lab work done? The clinic I use to go to did them on a regular basis. I had thought thyroid might be the issue, but it was not for me. I hope you find out what is wrong and get the proper help you need.

i have hypothyroidism so i know how awful ur feeling..i had blood work done many times for years cuz my mom kept telling me i was sick cuz of my thyroid n my blood work said it wasnt so the drs did nothing..had a dr tell me it was all in my head n i needed to seek counseling..well after that blood work she ordered she ate her words cuz my thyroid was barely functioning by that point...its awful n makes u feel like shit n very depressed but dont stop at this point finding the help u need cuz it just will get worse n ull get sicker with out the meds..make sure u find a dr that not only goes on ur blood work but also ur symptoms...dont give up please..its a shitty thing to have trust me i know..many others dont understand just how awful the symptoms from thyroid diseases are..try to see an endocrinologist cuz they really r the ones that will listen to u n take all ur symptoms into consideration even of ur blood work comes back ok still..keep ur chin up!!!!

don't settle for doctors who won't listen. keep fighting to get the answers and treatment you deserve. i understand your frustration and desperation, but don't give up fighting.

Feelings come and go, give yourself time to feel, and then work on setting them aside. A lot of times talking to someone else will give you a direction. Read up on your thyroid condition and become your own expert. A lot of times we rely on Drs, and they simply are human , like you and I. Reading gives you control, and information wil help give you direction.

Please read what Kelly said. I can't say it better than that.
