Hiya! I’m back from my Endocrinologist. I had a huge panic attack this morning when I called my Dr to go and pick up the blood test results and the refferall and found out they weren’t open. I called the other office they work out of in a panic and they arranged for me to go and get the paper work from a woman who was coming into the office near my to do paperwork! Whew…one disaster averted.<\/p>\n
I saw the Endo.ist and he was really nice. He took an hour to talk to me and go over all my meds and questions with me. He says I definately do have a low thyroid and is putting me on 100mcg’s. That’s lower then the regular Dr wanted to put me on but this guy is the specialist so we’ll go with his decision. I made it very clear that the number one thing I am concerned about is my weight issue. He is going to run a few other tests to rule out the possiblity that they are the cause of the weight issue but other then that he says that it’s possible that the correct level of Thyroid will help. We’ll see. I just have to keep telling myself that working out as hard as I am IS going to pay off and that I’m not doing this all for nothing. I’ll let you know how the tests come out.<\/p>\n
I’ll be working the rest of the night, and hopefully getting a nap. I can’t tell you how much of a difference the Amatriptaline makes on my headaches as well as the Synthroid on my fatigue, etc. Having gone without it for a week has proved they are helpful. Now I just gotta work back up to the right levels and I’ll be human again. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
