Kitty, I went from being Hyperthroid for a few years, then remission, then Hyporthroid which is what I am now and will always be.
Have you contacted your doctor about how much worse you are feeling? Even if it is not time for your blood work, he should be aware of your current condition. Would suggest he give you another blood test for your TSH to make sure you are hypothroid and not hyperthroid. Otherwise, it might be a good idea to see a different endocrinologist. As I mentioned before, you sound more like I did when I was hyperthroid. It took several months of using the med Tapazole when I was Hyperthroid to eventually calm down my symptoms. Many individulal require a partial removal of the throid. Not alway surgical; frequently can be done with a procedure I never had any removal of my throid. Used Tapazole at that time, which is not a med to be used indefinitely for hyperthroid.
I am now hypothroid; using Synthroid; but still deal with anxiety issues; but nothing like yours.
