Hi had my appointment with endocrinologist today,

Well his registrar she was very thorough ask me lots of questions and I asked lots aswell.

And I got lots of answers.

She asked me if my gp has ever looked into why I have hypo, I said no so having blood test done to establish whether my condition is as a result of an auto immune condition or post infection. Having ultra sound on my neck aswell.

She said my heart rate was a bit high and my hands had a tremor, this could mean my dosage to high.

Got to go back in 3 months after more blood tests.

I felt very positive after the appt and felt I was being listened to.

Thanks for reading. X

Well done, sounds good, it is really satisfying when you have a consultation like that - didn't happen often for me but it did happen (once) and I felt as if I was walking on air when I left the consultation room. Well done, hope the follow up throws light on your condition.
