Hi All, Can anyone help? I had a really bad experience of anxiety just before Christmas. Couldn't stop crying and struggling to get negative thoughts out of my head. I felt like I couldn't breath for the anxious feeling. I spoke with my Endocrinologist and he says I'm depressed and my symptoms are not related to my Hyperthyroidism. Does anyone else suffer these symptoms? I feel quite strongly that it's my condition and not depression. Whilst going through this period I accidentally missed taking my Carbimazole for two days and the feeling of anxiety went away. I wanted to reduce my dose further but I feel like my Endocrinologist won't even enter into a conversation about it. When first diagnosed my TSH read less than 0.01, FT4 36.2 and FT3 15.7. In May TSH 5.0. (0.30-6.00) In June TSH 4.2. In Sept TSH 0.95. In December TSH 1.3. (I don't think my T3 and T4 have been tested since initial diagnosis) I am on month 11 of the 18 months plan with carbimazole and I take 5mg per day. Also I feel like my symptoms reflect under active more than over active now. Can anyone help please?? Is there a reason why it can't be reduced further? Can you be over and then under? HELP PLEASE!!!
Thanks!!
