I called my endo this morning and they wanted to see me. They examined me and then told Mike and I that Graves Disease does not cause the shaking and jerking I am having. They want me to see my HMO doc (The one who misdiagnosed and treated us rudely) and have him run tests or refer me to a nuerologist. I told them what everyone has said here that they too have the jerks and shakes and that Graves does cause it. They would not believe us! I’m so mad!!!!!
I know Graves is doing this to me Is it possible since my period is a week away that PMS and Graves are doing this??? There is no way I’m going back to that sorry doc who said he doesn’t treat hyperthyroidism until overt symptoms show up. What is wrong with these doctors????? So I gues I’ll just shake and jerk the rest of my life.I’m thinking of changing my e-mail address to WhatAJerkIAm@Concentric.net too bad it’s too long lol. If anyone knows of any herbs
that helps jerks and shaking please let me know. They did draw another tsh level today and I’ll get the results tomorrow but they said it won’t show any change in 4 weeks time.What a bunch of idiots! This can cause jerking and spasms! And I have my thyroid tested every month. And every month it is different. It is not the same from one month to the next. I know we have some health care profesionals who are good, but, we have so many more who don’t know a d**n thing about this disease. As little as 10 years ago, a lot of women with thyroid disease were mis-diagnosed as manic-depressive and treated as such. This is a fairly new area of study, and no one knows better than us what we are going thru. All the health care “Pros” need to pull their heads out of their butts and listen to us. Sorry for the tyraid, and if I offend anyone, well, sorry, but they need to listen for a change instead of “telling” us how we feel.
I wish you had my doctor!Pat
Thank you Pat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No offense from your post here. I totally feel as outraged as you do and Mike and I were in total disbelief when they said that to us yesterday! I’m still jerking and shaking today so I don’t know what to do. They have not called me yet about my tsh level that was drawn yesterday either. They always call me with the test results the day after so what gives?????
