- So I had my appointment with my new Endo today. I left the visit more hopeful than I would have ever thought. When I explained to him that my GP said since my TSH was normal, the low/normal Free T4 was "normal for me" he said that's basically...
- I keep reading about having brittle nails when you're hypo. Are everyone's nails like that? I know mine aren't brittle. Almost the opposite, they feel pretty firm and strong to me. Anyone else?
- I was talking to the person that referred me to the Endo that I'm going to see in a couple of weeks, and he said the doc tests for TSH, Free T4, and the test for Hashi's, (thyroid antibodies?) He said the doc says if the Free T4 is off, then...
- So, once again, until I get diagnosed, I'm just assuming I'm hypo because of my symptoms, but my questions is, how in the world do you all keep going? For 5 days now, I've felt like the walking dead. NO energy, crazy fluttering like palpitations,...
- I have felt AWFUL today. Had a family Christmas get together to go to and just laid around, even mentioned to my mom how I just felt so bad it felt like I was dying. Extreme fatigue, headache, nausea, weakness, palpitations, shortness of breath, ...
- Does anyone else have underarm pain? I can't figure out for the life of me where all these problems have come from. Palpitations/adrenalin rush (not sure which it is). Its all about to drive me insane
- I was just wondering, how common is hypothyroidism in men? In the past, I've ALWAYS heard it associated with women. I'm trying to gather as much info as I can to take to my doc. I've sat in front of him and gone through my laundry list of...
- Hi all. I was sent this direction from someone who thinks you all might be able to help me. I've been feeling pretty awful for the last year and a half. Lately I've been getting worse and my doc can't figure it out. He keeps running tests on me...
- Hi all. Just wondering if anyone has any weird symptoms with their IBS. I have IBS-d and it seems like I'm slowly falling apart. I'm just wondering if anyone else has any strange symptoms
- Hi all. Just dropping by with a question. Does having a peptic ulcer mean I have GERD? I haven't been able to find a conclusive answer and the peptic ulcer group isn't very active. Thanks for any replys!
- Does anyone else have panic attacks? My wife and I are kinda leaning towards the idea that I'm having them. Out of the blue yesterday, I started having heart palpitations. Probably one every 5 minutes or so. I rushed home and dissolved a valium...
- Does MD cause anyone else to have almost a skin tightness on their head? I have skin tightness and shooting pain all over my scalp, and it seems to be linked to attacks. Anyone else?
- I'm convinced corticosteroids were created by the devil, lol. I'm not sure what's worse, fighting the symptoms of Meniere's or fighting the side effects of dexamethasone. Racing heart, sweating, indigestion, blurry vision, nausea. Its AWFUL!!!!. ...
- Finally made it back to the Shea Clinic today. They tested my hearing again, and once again, no hearing loss. The doc said it was identical to the last one. Another round of corticosteroids start tomorrow, which I can't wait to start! (sarcasm,...
- Its no secret I love to hunt and fish. Where I live, there is an "island" that is owned by a man, and leased out for hunters. Its really only an actual island for about 6 or 7 months out of the year, (its several thousand acres in the Mississippi...
