You might want to try a new endocrinologist. As mentioned previously, I started Hyperthroid (Graves) producing too many throid hormones. I had no idea what was wrong with me. My PCP added throid without my knowledge in a general blood test. The doctor called me up and asked me if I knew I had Graves Disease (hyperthroid). Luckily got to a good endo, who also is an internist. he treated me a couple of years with the Tapazole and the I went into remission. Because of blood work ever 4 - 6 months, it was caught right away when I became hypothroid and started with Synthroid. Dose had been adjusted a couple of times and for the past couple of years am on the same dose with no more up and downs. Again, I was lucky to get to the right endo who really is treating my throid disease. Once you have the disease, it is with you for life. Correct treatment can keep in level. This up and down is not good for you or anyone that comes in your path. I know when I had too much of the throid hormone; the anxiety, irritability, hair loss, etc. was not good. I do so understand what you are going through. Wish you all the best. (Ger) Last edited by ger715; 02-05-2012 at 12:23 AM. |
