thyroid.about.com/od/thyroi... Might help?

Hi Polly your in the same boat as me. You should really be on the thyroid site. They are really helpful and knowledgeable about thyroid problems. But if you ever get to understand it your a better women than me. If you put your blood tests up for them someone will read them for you and give you explanation on them. Hope that's of some help.

Check out the thyroiduk website - they are an absolutely excellent support group, and I think they have some kind of helpline as well.
