Setting up appt was slightly frustrating.
Dealing with nurse was very frustrating.
Doc is calming..... she listened......I have been self treating a number of issues that could be all driven by low thyroid. She asked me twice what if the FT3 and FT4 comes back normal? I said then we need to keep digging to figure this out.
Was this a reasonable question? Was this just another way to say you don't have a thyroid problem?
Had not eaten today so gave a pint of blood. Then asked which tests. Ft3,FT4, the test for immune attack on thyriod, iron, vitamin D, Lyme, A1c , and I'm sure this is not entirely correct.
Why cant doc discuss the tests and what they are looking for? Lack of time?
I need to check my own temp.... that nurse gets my bp jumping....figure temp must be up too.
I'm fat overweight and wearing a jacket to keep warm.
Oh, stopped at a friends. Even she knew verticle lines mean low thyroid. .....
Will read the threads to find thyroid support.
