- Hi! Its been a long time since I posted on here. A quick history is I was dx with Graves and Hoshimotos about 5 years ago. My only symptom was my hands shaking. Thought I had Parkinson's but after testing it was the thyroid. My family dr wanted me...
- Ok, I'm sorry I've tried posting now twice and it doesn't print everything with the labs. I've done this before but now its not working. What am I doing wrong?
- Hi! I have been on here before and just received my new labs. Some back round. Last Spring, after being on methimazole for 3 years, we tried to see if I could go in remission so I stopped. In stopping, I went Hyper again. My Dr. had me start...
- Ok, I have a question? Does losing your voice have anything to do with your thyroid? My previous feeds have that I had tried remission it did not work, I became Hyper again and am now taking Methimazole again. Maybe its just a cold but I do not have...
- I have not been on this site for awhile. I was dx with Graves/Hyperthyroid/Hoshimotos (yup gotta love it) anyway the dx came in 2010 after I felt the best in years. I had lost 30 lbs after doing a biggest loser class locally and the only symptom I...
- Ok, so after waiting 40 min in the lobby, 40 min. in the room, I finally see the dr., there goes another 40 min. I told them when I scheduled my next appt in Dec I dont have time for 2 1/2 hr appts everytime. Anyway here are my labs: T3 Free 190...
- Hi! Just wanted to check in. Its been only 2 weeks since my Endo appt and I am pleased with how things are going. I feel great. I have all through this to begin with. However, I'm slowly noticing my hand tremors are not as bad. I do notice if a...
- Ok, ques. since I stated the 5mg Methalzone he said to take it every 8 hrs. which is fine. Except what if its a little more or less? Like I was figuring 7am, 3pm, and 11pm, however sometimes I got to bed prior to 11 and not up at 7 at least during...
- Ok, so I have found out that Endo Offices things move slow. For the waiting patient its a drag but when your the patient and the doc takes almost an hour and 1/2 with you its a good thing. He was very nice and thorough. He let me talk and tell the...
- Well I was away for awhile and got back yesterday and trying to catch up. We had a trip to Florida for my oldest who is checking a college out down there. It was good to get away. wish I could be on vacation forever! However I cant and my first...
- Ok, ques. from what I understand when a person has Hoshimotos there is a time period where the thyroid is hyper.....whats to say that mine isnt just in that stage and will become Hypo and then it would be Hoshi's? Also, some of the responses to some...
- Ok, I finally got an apt with the local Endo in 3 weeks. This was the third time I called them this week. Finally the doc saw my charts. When I called today she said it wasnt there at first but found it and it said URGENT on it!! I asked why and she...
- For all you who have achieved remission on meds, which meds were you taking? Just wondering. Didnt know if one out weighed the other. I dont think so but thought I'd ask.
- Ok, got in contact with the endo that my family dr wants me to see and the practice is booked till the end of Sept. What!! There's only one in the county I live in which is pretty big, and two others within 30-40 miles. I would like to see one near...
