Re: Does anybody know.

Hi Yesenia,

I'm really glad to hear you've been heard by an open minded doctor.

They are so rare to find.

Fibromyalgia is a common condition amongst implanted women.

Unfortunately, alot of doctors will deny there is a connection.

Antidepressants are often prescribed these days, and I am not sure

that they are the solution. It is rare that the antidepressants

actually bring about any type of healing...and only delaying

progress. I think quite a number of women on our group found that

getting rid of the drugs was one of their first steps toward progress.

The goal is to only use drugs temporarily to help you get through the

very worst of times, with the understanding that they will not be a

long term answer and getting off as soon as possible.

The ANA test is a good one to take...I would also recommend a thyroid

test, including the Free t3 and Free t4, as well as Anti-TPO

antibodies and Anti-thyroglobulin antibodies.

I would also recommend a rheumatoid factor test, and if possible, a

cortisol test that measures your cortisol output at 4 different times

of the day. I would also recommend a hormonal panel to see where

your sexual hormones are at.

These are tests that MOST doctors won't request, so you might have to

defend your position. These are some of the tests that have been

abnormal on some of our women.

Patty, Thank you so much !!!

The previous doctors in the same office had already checked my

thyroid, i don't know what kind of test though. They also had

checked my hormones. Yes, i would love to find out where my sex

hormomens are... lol i don't seem to find them anywhere. I don't

know what kind of hormone test they did neither. I would ask this

new doctor to check again. I guess a panel is probably different

than what i had done. I will ask about the other ones also.

She seems to be ok with doing some investigating out of the norm.

She mention " working on the symptoms rather than the results of the

test " !!!!!! what a concept !!!!! I think she might be God sent.

Thanks again Patty

Love & Blessings,

Yesenia

Yesenia,

Most thyroid tests are the basic ones...TSH and the T3 and T4, and

alot of doctors don't delve deeply enough into a possible autoimmune

condition. That's what the antibody tests are for. Make sure you get

copies of all of your test results, so you can have records for

yourself and you can keep track of where these levels are heading.

Over time you may see a gradual shift towards a hypothyroid state.

I think we also have a big problem with our hormones in general and

that is why so many doctors can't find anything wrong with us. They

do all kinds of tests and tell us we are okay because our tests are

okay. But maybe they have not discovered where our hormones have

been jolted out of balance because they may still be in " normal "

ranges. Who knows? It is complex, to be sure.

Keep looking for answers....with the help of a good doctor, you will

find a solution.
