I am sure I should have expected it. But I took my recent Dio2 Test result and a print out of all my thyroid blood results over the past 2 years, carefully annotated and with reference ranges and percentage through range to the surgery last week. GP rang me today about something else, I'm back in Afib! I didn't think I was.
I asked if he'd looked at my letter, he hadn't had it. He did go and find it and call me back later. But he said as a GP it meant nothing to him. And because all my test results are in range, as a GP they are normal. He mentioned that I'd seen an NHS endo who also declared me normal and discharged me.
It's so dispiriting isn't it? I feel defeated at every turn. They freak out about thyroid when you have Afib. I thought it was back to normal after a cardioversion in January, but obviously not.
I do see a private endo. I must make a new appointment and "see" him somehow. I hate phone calls when I can't see their faces.
