Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 I would appreciate anyone's comments on this. As some of you know I have been suffering a severe hives attack for one week now. I cannot relate the breakout to anything right now...,I know that takes time and patience. But I know my body, and I just cannot shake the idea that is has something to do with my thyroid. Several internet articles also relate hyper to hives, but don't say why or wherefores. In the meantime, I am entertaining the idea that I may have gone hyperthryoid, and since hyper accelerates all the systems in the body, it could have accelerated my immune system to dump this enormous amount of histamine into my system. Does this make sense to anyone? My last labs show hyper....ft3 of 9 with 5 being high range. Yet, and this is a big yet, I FELT FINE, temps were 98.6 and didn't have major things going on, a little hand tremor. I was reluctant to lower Cytomel because I knew my temps would go down. Dumb right? I had posted a long time ago asking what was more important: labs or symptoms? Don't remember any responses, but for right now, I'm thinking maybe I should get off the cytomel for a while? Should labs be the major marker here and screaming at me that I'm hyper....even tho I didn't feel it before? Since last week, I've lowered it by half, but now, and this could be due to sooooo many things going on, and the meds I'm taking now...but I'm getting strong heart palps and anxiety...which also reflect hyper. To top it off....this atarax I'm taking has me zombie and I'm not even sure if I'm making any sense on this post. My hubbie has already noticed me talking with slurs and getting words backwards and such....so sorry if this is a mess! Please if anyone has any ideas that can help me I would appreciate it.
