    Crappy Doctor said the TPO tests were normal. My TSH levels have never been under 2.5 so still pretty high for graves disease. But my T4 was off the chart in the high direction. We managed to get an appointment with the good doctor on Wednesday. I've been recording my heart rate when I wake up for the doctor to see when we go in on Wednesday. Well see...

    Most of you know that I have had fluctuating thyroid and stomach pain. Not to mention inability to sleep. Last doctor appointment (3 or so weeks ago) I had a high heart rate. I am now doing a gym class where we have to take our heart rates. I took it after sitting at my desk for 30 minutes and mine was 114. For a 17 year old that is fairly high "best...

    I saw a massage therapist and then a chiropractor for the adjustment. She was a very good massage therapist, i didn't like the chiropractor nearly as much. lol

    I understood the sarcasm in your post. Some people just aren't sarcastic people, lol. I just wanted to make sure you knew that someone understood your sarcasm.

    Of course my plans include that! I don't have to apply to college until next September. And I of course always study hard! As for the boys...lol

    I don't tell any one anything. I eat my meals at my home with my family, and I don't talk about any kind of health problems. It is just easier to say nothing about it. Don't tell them your food is gluten free and they won't know which means they won't comment on it. And the people that did make these comments don't need to be around you anymore. As...

    Yesterday we went to a Chiropractor and an eye doctor. Last year when I had back pain we went to a normal doctor who ran tests for kidneys, bladder, and I would assume any other organ that could have been a culprit. I believe all came back fine and my back pain went away. So yesterday I had a massage and an adjustment. I'm not feeling much better in the...

    Thanks Avalon, I have read up on anal fissures and that is what it probably is. Going to go for more fruits and veggies, and try to have a cleaner and healthier diet, along with drinking water. In all honesty one day I can truly be very constipated and the next day have a really soft bowel movement,so soft it is almost like diarrhea. It changes almost weekly...

    I was not gluten free for the first test of TSH. A month later when they tested Free T3 and T4 I had been gluten free for about 3 weeks. I went back on gluten the next test results were "normal". I am not gluten free as of now. Nor sugar free. Thanks for all the tips Bea. I will check them out!

    High TSH first time 5.17 range .3-3.0 I don't have the results of TPO but doctor said it was normal. I guess if need be I can get the results and ranges. Free T4 was high a month after the "hypo" TSH. Then normal everything a month after that. Then they ran the TPO two weeks after the normal tests.

    Doctor called and he said the tests came back normal. He says that the normal tests do not rule out the thyroid as being the cause of my problems. He says for now we should make an appointment to start treating the symptoms until we know what is wrong. This means he is putting me back on miralax, to achieve daily soft stools. Going to get a little gross...

    It has officially started snowing. It isn't cold enough for me to justify carrying my coat to school, but the wind is awful and it makes your eyes water. Supposed to snow 6 days straight.

    Cute video! I liked the one at the table with the bone, he crossed his little paws. Irish, whenever I cook anything the dog is "helping". I set her on a towel on the counter while I cook. She is a shih tzu. She has a few words that make her perk up: Help, Ride, Car, Treat, Bath. We used to say "Holly you want a bath!?" To get her to come to us because...

    Yuck, after reading your stories I'm got crawlies all over me. As for Bears, I've only seen one at the zoo and they are lovely. We are getting a "water" exhibit this year it will have seals,otters, and of course polar bears. I'm fortunate to live in such a small place but have such a wonderful zoo nearby. We have brown recluses, black widows, and Hobo...

    Probably finding out test results tonight, within the hour. I'm going to go try to work on math and start preparing for a negative test result.

    I am 17 and I am highly afraid of all squirmy little things. Most girls hate spiders but spiders are nothing in comparison to millipedes or grasshoppers. In my opinion the more they crunch, the more they should be feared. Thank goodness we don't have cockroaches here, I would die of fright. I hate gardening because of the bugs, snails and worms. Several...

    I agree with Irish, here it is unseasonable warm. They are making fake snow at the ski resorts because of all the money they are losing. The fake snow is no where as good as They Greatest Snow on Earth. It is currently 33 F, we are expecting many snow storms in the next week. Unfortunately we don't get school canceled unless we are snowed in. I here of...

    Well living at home I am ultimately at the mercy of my parents and their wallet. It does shock me how so many doctors say "Well the tests were fine." And it is like a slap in the face, I'm so glad my tests are fine but what about my stomach and symptoms? It's bull****, but I hope to either come back positive or find a doctor who treats symptoms. Thanks

    So I haven't posted in a while, been trying to stay away from the internet and thyroid problems all together. Today I had my blood drawn for the TPOab and one other thyroid hemoglobin or something similar. Several doctors are saying the thyroid results in the last few months could have just been thrown off by something, and that they were probably just...

    ARCHIVED Am I Being Tested Right

    Booghead replied to Mrslmc's topic in Doctors

    I don't know if I am misunderstanding but I don't think you have been of gluten long enough for it to affect a blood test. And I'm pretty sure you said it was a doctor who tested you not the lady at the health food store. So I would say you are probably Celiac.

    ARCHIVED Finding The Right Doctor

    Booghead replied to Booghead's topic in Doctors

    Well the doctors told us that I am not hyperthyroid. That the last 2 tests that were off the scale in the hypo direction could be "flukes" which pisses me off a lot but my mom was the one to talk to them so I don't know the context. I would really hate to be back at square one with zero results. They did want to order the TPOab test for hashimotos, but...
