Wonders will never cease!

Well!! I have to take it all back! I saw an endo today who actually knew what he was talking about! He didn’t poo poo me and looked at my test results, symptoms and basal body temp charts. He realised I knew what I was talking about too and treated me like an adult - not a hypochondriac!!! He did all the blood tests (I know! I’d already taken my meds and wasn't fasted and it was 3pm but I told him all that and he said he’d bear it in mind). He’s putting me on a combo prescription and I’ve got to go back in 6 weeks for monitoring. Only problem is I ‘forgot’ to tell him I took metavive this morning too.

Oh! I forgot to say that my endo told me today that my raised TG antibodies were not significant and it was really only TPO antibodies that indicated hashis. I may have a minor autoimmune condition. My TG antibodies were 302 (<115) and 390 in December 2018 and July 2019 respectively.
