Do you have insurance. who have you seing. are you having thyroid meds at all? how are you vitamin d , b12, and ferritin?

[nichola79 in reply to anuska]

I have been seeing a endo in Bristol and have been to see dr p but he was a bit ablivious as my tsh was at the time showing high in range but I had a racing heat and palps which is noted as hyper, but now my tsh has gone to 0.30 which is low and I have hyper symptoms, I seem to go between, I have forwarded my new lab results to him, just awaiting a response hopefully, I see a nhs endo in Bristol but he isn't any good, I do have low in range ferritin, b12 and folate I was supplementing but my gp wants me of them for a month to be checked again x

[anuska in reply to nichola79]

Hi there nicola

I've just signed the petition. I really do hope that something gets done regarding care for us thyroid/autoimmune patients.

I had lots of hassle with my previous gp who refused to retest my blood work despite suffering symptoms. So I move doctors who were more than happy to retest me earlier than the 6 months and they diagnose me hypothyroid.

I agree, more understandinng and management for situations like ours is due, not just within the medical community but also within the employment community - my former boss was less than understanding about my health and simply said I didn't look sick as I was told I had no goitre!

Take care

[nichola79 in reply to Blossom234]

thank you, yes its terrible somethings need sorting so we don't have to suffer x

[ThyroidThora]
