Re: Ok, ladys I need thyroid experts here./Hi Cricket no expert just me

[Guest guest]

Hi Cricket it is good to hear from you. I missed you. I am a bit

confused about the numbers your posting, is this your TSH level or

what? Could you share the entire lab work with us, or with me on my

email address. I am not an expert but I do have some knowledge and

can also ask a really good Dr at work about it when I see him next.

Also did you say that syntroid was the only one you have tried or was

there others like Armour? Anyhow if you can answer this I might have

some other ideas for you. Thyroid is trickey and I don't always thin

the labs always tell the entire story. There can be so much more

going on. What kind of test do you get do you know if it is a

complete thyroid panel or is it just the TSH, T4,T3 etc? The panel

includes some other things too. You also may want to get the thyroid

anitbody test done too to be sure you are not like Patty and I

believe as well, with Hashimotos disease. Hashi can make it

really hard to get your levels evened out.

At any rate I would love to be able to get all the info you can give

me and then i will try to catch Dr Avondet our endo at the hospital I

work in who is the best one around the mountain states.

Other than this how is it going are you still feeling really good

most of the time?

fill me in ok? I miss you all, I feel like I have not spoken to you

all in so long. It was so much fun in SV all thanks to your family

and use of their wonderful home. In fact I feel like a total dunce

that we did not buy them something to show them how much we

appreciated their kindness in letting us use their home.

Love ya

,

Glad your home. Missed ya.

I am sorry to hear about your sister. Wouldn't you just like to hit

her over the head and knock some sence into her. :)

Well at least she is informed. She may not believe that the implants

are making her sick yet, but she knows more about it than we all

did, so when it gets bad enough she'll wake up.

Those numbers were my TSH.

The first blood test for this doctor was in 3/17/04

this is before I was taking anything.

Lab report: Ultra TSH 4.54

Free T4, direct 0.79 normal

thyroid perox. AB >1,000 H

Thyroglobulin AB 110 H

I spoke to the doctor on the phone yesterday so I do not have my new

labs, but he said that the TSH is now 9.3

so it seems that since I have been taking the snythyroid my thyroid

is getting worse. He up the amount I am taking.

When I go in to see him I will get more details on my new labs, this

is all the info I have right now.

Love Cricket
