It is always something, isn't it.  :thumbdown;

But let's hope that getting your thyroid under control will help you....

To hopefully give you a little reassurance about a bad Thyroid, my daughter has Graves disease and one of its problems is a Thyroid that goes out of control causing all kinds of problems, but they cured that quickly by giving here Radioactive Iodine, which settles in the Thyroid and renders it useless, She simply takes Levothroid pills to make up for it and has lost the symptoms of the rampaging Thyroid, no surgery needed. I have almost the opposite problem with my Thyroid, not active enough, but one .125 microgram pill of Levothroid per day takes care of it for me.......

would be awesome if the dr would actually do something.... i havent seen or heard from him since, and its been nearly a month since i had that blood test. Also, was just informed by my pyschiatrist that the blood work was "really bad" and the dr should be treating me, but since hes not, i have to find another dr who will take my insurance, that isnt so far awway that i cant get there!
im so sick of being shit on
i never get answers, and i just want the pain to stop so i can spend these lovely days outside with my son where i belong!
