Hi

I'm going to my 4th endo to see if they are not obsessed with the as he says iim ok but feel like death . It's there anyone on here on thyroxine for 5 plus yr who doesn't experience ectopic beats or dizziness ear pain or chronic tinnitus I also suffer horrendous vertigo ear pain and chronic tinnitus but specialist said this was vestibular migraine. If endo said im no longer hypo because I'm managed with thyroxine colluld all this current symotoms be from thyroid. Of i don't find an endo who isn't inserted with tsh hoe do i get better!!

UPDATE! WENT TO TWO NEW ENDOS WITHIN A WEEK AND.A HALF MY.LAST 800 DOLLARS AND I ASKED THEM EVERYRHING IVE LEARNT.FROM THR FORUM AND MY RESEARCH AND THEY SAID MY RESULTS ARE OKAY . MT SYMPTOMS ARE NOT FROM THYROID. IM SO UPSET AND LOST

Contra, Sorry you are so unwell. I am afraid that situations like yours is fairly common as medics do not fully understand thyroid problems or listen to patients' symptoms. This is why most of us are on here helping each other.

How we mange to get an improvement is by learning about the condition, learning about our own individual bodies and by keeping records of regular blood tests and how we feel. To achieve this many have to resort to paying for private blood tests. We also have to tackle medics with knowledgeable arguments and reasoning which is why we need to keep records and learn what our blood results imply.

Have you got any recent blood tests and ranges that we could look at to help you with your endo appointment?
