Hello – Here are a couple of referral sites for endocrinologists:
http://www.aace.com/ and http://www.thyroid.org/.
On the AACE site, you might have to scroll down a bit to see the “Find an Endocrinologist” link on the left-hand side of the screen. Be sure and select the specialty “thyroid dysfunction” when doing a search on this site.
On the thyroid.org site, move your cursor over where it says “Public & Patients” (towards the top center of the screen) and then click on “Find a Specialist.” All of the doctors on this site have expertise in thyroid issues.
We aren’t medical professionals here so we can’t interpret your labs, but in general an above normal T3 and T4, along with below normal TSH is indicative of hyperthyroidism. It’s helpful to monitor your labs over time and note whether they are moving closer to the “normal” range.
Keep in mind that some patients respond FAST to the methimazole. (I was one). With your next scheduled visit 9 weeks out, definitely keep an eye out for hypO symptoms. Every patient is a little different, but common symptoms include fatigue, joint pain, weight gain, constipation, dry skin, cold intolerance, and slow pulse. If you start feeling these symptoms come on, definitely ask for a new set of labs ASAP. As your levels start moving in to the “normal” range, it’s common for the dose of methimazole to be reduced to keep you from becoming hypO.
