Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 I know! I keep doing things like putting the milk in the microwave and grabbing diaper ointment instead of hand cream...really stupid stuff! So this is just part of graves then? I didn't notice it so much before. Re: Labs Hi Kristi, My brain fog is so much worse when I am hypo...and the more hypo I am, the worse it is. Hubby asked me for a sip of my water the other morning, and I heard him, then handed him my deodorant! It is one of the most frustrating things about this disease!

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 Well, my TSH is 0.1 and my T4 is 1.05, T3 is 108. The endo said those were good, but then someone on our support group said they were the lower end of normal. As I understand it the TSH lags 6 weeks or so? Anyway, my TSH was the same last time, so I'm kind of wondering why that's stayed the same while the other numbers have changed. Re: Labs Kristi, When you say your numbers are on the low end...which numbers, I can't remember <brain fog>. If the T3 and T4 are on the low end, that is the hypo side for them...if our TSH is on the low end that is hyper. They are opposite in that aspect. Call and request new labs again now, you don't want to keep going more hypo.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2002 Report Share Posted May 9, 2002 HMmmm. Should I get new labs then? I'm on 10 mg of tapazole right now. I did recently start splitting the dose and I actually like doing that better than taking the 10 mg all at once. Good luck with your new endo!! I hope it goes GREAT! Kristi Re: Labs OK, that's me! I feel so ssssllllllooooowwww (slow) on the uptake! I guess my numbers are still on the low end of normal. I would love to feel even a tiny bit hyper so that I could get my brain back. Is there anything you can do for this or do you just have to wait it out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
