No I don't mind charting my temp. Might be a good idea anyway. I'll set it up on Xcel. Easy to do. Then I think I'll make an appointment with an indocrinologist. It has bothered me long enough. My t3 &4 were off in the last test I had run. But when I saw the new rheumatologist, he thought they were fine because the TSH was fine. T3 &4 weren't but he told me it didn't make any difference because the TSH was fine. I decided not to argue at that point and I wasn't sure.

Anyway...

I hope it goes well for you!!!!!

Most important....see an endocrinologist to sort out thyroid problems. Most docs just cant handle it.
150 mg of Synthroid sure helps me.
When you mentioned being cold....Hashi Motos came to mind. ITs an auto immune thyroid disease....another malady I picked up along this ugly journey. My feet, hands, nose....ice cold....sweat pouring off my face as I'm sweating so profusley.....can't even wear make-up.....ugg! Change clothing often, must wear only cool cotton with no sleeves or collars. I hate this disease!
On top of this mess....diarrhea makes me miserable ALL the time. I do get some sleep....when I wake up and simply swallow, my gut starts doing it again and I'm off to the toilet.....trying to make my muscle weakness behave long enough to get my bunns on the white throne. Having a huge butt certainly helps!
Ya know....I've complained for eons about food sitting down there for hours. I did that pill camera and all it did was die in my stomach...didnt go anywhere or show anything...then stuck in my intestines...had to open me up a week later to retrieve it...thank God they did...found the cause of my severe anemia....5.1 hgb the lowest....2 years of transfusions....they found 3 feet of rotted intestines but not the source of my bleeding.....several feet up my intestines they found an AVM.....arterioveinous malformation...basically an intestinal anuerism the size of a baseball....bleeding away. Once the bad sections removed I was doing much better....but they failed to advise me on the B12.....so weak I could hardly swallow....a summer spent in bed thinking I was dying...I found BT and Rose advised me about sublingual B12. What a difference it made! But sadly....life has not been easy....especially lately.
No one knows whats wrong....I say its mostly tied to vitamin and mineral deficiencies but finding the right combo has been a real crap shoot.
What ever! Blessings, cheryl
