- I realized yesterday I was down to my last pill so I phoned in the prescription refill, but today the pharmacy is closed so I'm going to miss today's dose. Dumb of me not to notice and refill it sooner. Do I just start taking it again tomorrow...
- I had to cajole the doctor a little to get them, but they just called to say they phoned in a prescription for me and I get to pick them up in a little while! Any advice? Aren't certain kinds better taken at night or does it not matter?
- Doctor didn't run Free T3, but my Free T4 came back at 9% of the range. Which probably explains why I feel like a walking dead person.
- So over the last couple years I've been in and out of my doctor's office with all kinds of complaints, begging for thyroid medication. She's been hesitant to give it to me because she said while my thyroid does appear to be having issues, it's not...
- Hey all! I came across this and thought you might find it interesting. It's a little difficult to read because of all the medical speak, but it goes into what they've found in various studies about anxiety, what actually physically happens to the...
- If you look in a mirror, tilt your head back a little, and swallow, can you see your thyroid? Mine is quite obvious but I thought that was kind of normal. I've been watching it more closely though because I feel this constant pressure in my throat...
- Just wondering if it's just me, or if you guys experience days where you're super clumsy? Some days it's like I'm off by a quarter of an inch - dropping things, setting things down incorrectly, maybe tripping over my own feet. They seem to...
- You might remember I was complaining about peripheral neuropathy recently. My doctor had suggested that my low levels of vitamin B was the cause of that, but because I've been taking a supplement my levels are normal now and she said it should...
- I was wondering how many of you suffer from peripheral neuropathy. I've had the fuzzy pins-and-needles feeling in my feet for quite awhile now, but lately it's been getting more intense. It's creeping up my legs, showing up in my hands. Sometimes...
- Back in September I had my vitamin D tested for the first time. It came back at 36 (30-100) and my doctor told me to take 4000 IU every day. We just rested it and it came back at 33. I'm a little surprised that it went down! I admit that there...
- Hi everyone! A month or so ago I told you that I went to the endo to discuss my thyroid labs, and he didn't feel that they were all that bad and said something else had to be going on with me. He noticed I had tachycardia and low blood pressure...
- Hi everyone! I've been having a lot of random health issues for several years, that I've been disregarding as just being over worked, getting older, etc. But earlier this year I had the stomach flu, followed by a massive level of stress because of...
- First, here were my last two labs:JuneT3 (2.5 - 3.9) 3.2 T4 (0.6 - 1.7) 0.9 TSH (0.4 - 3.0) 1.41SeptemberTSH1.52(0.40 - 5.80) T3, Free3.0(2.3 - 4.2) Free T40.89(0.70 - 1.20) Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody134(0 - 35)IU/mL So in a nutshell, the endo said...
- My doctor sent me a referral to an endocrinologist, and their office just called to set the appointment. The endo had reviewed my latest labs and said with my "normal TSH and normal FT4", it's not necessary to see me right away so the appointment...
- So I went in to see my doctor today about my lab results. Turns out she's on vacation so I saw the NP instead, who proceeded to tell me that everything is perfect except for my Vitamin D and B levels. I realized in horror that she was going to...
