It's always one more thing
Hi J-Kat,
I understand what you are saying. Isn't one thing enough. Wasn't having the 3 babies enough? slip in TOS, maybe fibro? and then low thyroid?
The diagnoses keep adding up and we're exhausted.
Yes, my doc and I monitor my thyroid levels yearly. I have a rather new age doctor who is into natural medications. I take Armour thyroid. Something about it having T3 and T4 ... it works well for me and my daughter. We both had low basal morming temps. That is a sign of hypothyroidsm. I am doing very well with the pump. I can't imagine live without it. I got a little discouraged that I wasn't recovering as I should.
I called Medtronics and they said 8 weeks is the norm.
About the anesthesia and surgery causing heart problems/arrhythmia.....did your recent surgery cause problems. Mine didn't. I've seen lots of hypothyroid patients have surgery. When the thryoid was under control however.
When you change doctors and they get this case solved, you should feel much better. Lets hope that is it
Hope
