Default So Interesting to me!

Several years ago (and two moves later) I had a great endo doctor.

Now I do not and I get very concerned about my Hashimotos. My PCP takes care of my hypo thyroid now. I get concerned because I'm often not sure where the thyroid problems start and end and where the MS comes in.

I've always questioned whether I have true MS. Yes, I do have lesions but they are not greatly changed. I wonder if thyroid can cause lesions also?

My doc relies totally on the thyroid panel he does every 6 mos.

I'm thinking more and more that when I see my neuro in late January I will ask to see an edocrinologist who specializes in thyroid.

Sorting out health issues is very complicated isn't it.
