Feeling awful..........

Hello everyone,

I have been feeling really awful - Painful stomach, Stomach aches two/three times every day, feeling dizzy, struggling to breathe, tight chest, high pulse, low temperature, lots of trips to the toilet & all the general symptoms as well but why is this? I did change medication to Westhyroid pure but haven't had any for days.

I did go to the docs but was just told to wait for my endo appointment - What should I do ??? I feel really awful

Thank you

13th June - but the chances of getting a helpful endo is remote. I just get passed around but I am getting very ill now. I shouldn't be like this at 33

No one should be left feeling so ill, whatever their age. Do you have someone to accompany you for support?

Yes my friend is coming with me to see the endo, so far I have just been dismissed.

My last endo appointment was a diseaster - I went in with lots of evidence, my notes etc to back up everything I was saying but he wasn't interested - I was offered Levo at a reduced amount and betablockers to slow my heart down. If the Thryoid medication was working I would not have a pulse of 126bpm or feel the way I do. Oddly enough the natural product has been worse for me so I will go back to the T3. I am freezing cold now, I have winter clothing on and my heating. I am not a well bunny but the docs can't see it

Thank you Clutter,

I have been off Thyroid meds & Hydrocortisone for three days now but today I am very hyper, do you know why this is?

Clutter in reply toKitten-whiskers

Not really, KW., but hyper symptoms are often due to undermedication which seems likely in your case.

Is it, Thank you Clutter, that would have never occurred to me, but it does make sense.

I did wonder how I could be over medicated on 1/4 of a tablet that I had three days ago.

That means when I next brave taking some meds everything should slow down again - how Bizarre. Thank you Clutter
