What definately isn't making any sense is that as you can see i have a low TSH reading and have had a low TSH reading constantly for over a year now . Now , am unable to understand why i am getting symptoms of both a low TSH reading and a high TSH reading both at the same time , i.e : fatigue , dry skin , dry brittle hair that breaks off , brain fog , constipation , insomnia , and intolerance to both heat and cold , but would say mainly heat . Can anyone shed some light on this please as am totally confused as to what is going on with my body .
Now , just a quick update , i don't know if any of you remember my posts from last year concerning the lumps in my neck , shoulder and front of collar bone and the fact that the doctors kept saying they couldn't see anything , well , around 2 weeks ago i recieved a letter from the hospital Rheumotology dept ,
after reviewing my previous CT scans , they have found that i have increased adipose fatty tissue in the area and that there is also a vein running through this and that it is possibaly venous congestion that is causing the intermitent swellings . Now , maybe i'm worrying unessaseraly , but this is all happening on the same side as the carotid artery dissection which caused me to have a mini stroke last April , has anyone any thoughts on this please , as the hospital have said there is nothing i can do about this until the present crisis is over with . But the problems are actually getting worse , lumps are getting more and more sore and have just about lost my voice .
some help and advice would be very much appreciated please , in the meantime hope you all stay safe and take care . 😌
