Frustrated

I just had an appointment with the thyroid Dr, and he was so nasty towards me because I was twlling him my symptoms and asking him if he can please check my adrenal glands and he reprimanded me for reading info online about the thyroid and he was dismissing me and just telling me i dont have anything wrong with me and i told him i feel like in dying, what do i do?

What a miserable experience.

Do you have the results of any blood tests that you can post here, complete with ranges, so that people can make suggestions for you.

Well, if that is how a 'healer' puts confidence into his patient you are better to read and ask questions' on the forum.

If you have had a blood test for thyroid hormones can you get a print-out of the results with the ranges and post on a new question for comments.

If you haven't had a test, it has to be at the very earliest possible, fasting (you can drink water, and if you were taking thyroid hormones, you'd allow a 24 hour gap between dose and test and take it afterwards.

Ask GP to test your thyroid hormones and also B12, Vit D, iron, ferritin and folate as all have to be optimum. Thyroid should be TSH, T4, T3, Free T4, Free T3 and thyroid antibodies. GP or lab may not do all of them but you can, if you wish, get a private blood test for the ones GP will not do.
