Hello,
I was diagnosed with Grave’s disease about 10 years ago. Not long after, the endocrinologist treated me with RAI. It took two treatments to completely kill the function of my thyroid gland. Ever since, I have struggled with it. I have been taking Synthroid and the doctors have had a hard time regulating my thyroid gland. I go from hypo to hyper. My life has been in turmoil ever since. I am 5”5, weigh now about 135 pounds and is currently taking 150 Synthroid. My dose has been changed many times. I even had to go up as much as 175 of Synthroid. My doctor suggested to try a naturapath, who tried me on some other treatment wich made things worst. I have tried to have my doctors send me to a specialist but I am not able to for some reason. I just don’t know what to do anymore. Nobody will help me and takes my symptoms seriously. I often have symptoms of depression and bipolor like. Is that normal? I go for blood tests almost every month. My tsh, my T3 and T4 fluxuate and go up and down. Can anybody help me understand why I have been through this constant turmoil?
Thank you.
Lyne
