My endo didn’t say anything to help I don’t have hypothyroidism and told her how unwell I am basically she doesn’t know what’s refused to help me and said she will repeat test in a few weeks . She didn’t care about the results of private bloods they mean notching and tpo doesn’t mean autoimmune thyroiditis until my tsh rises she can’t help. Basically my being so unwell and all hypo list I tried to explain and throat problems are nothing to do with hypo or Hashimoto’s. Am totally stunned at ignorance and how blatantly cold and uncaring this lady was .

Hi, I’m sorry to read about your difficulties. I hope that the appointment you have in April goes better. I read your earlier post & you said that you’re having lots of muscular & tendon problems. Since you have a good GP I recommend that she refer you for physiotherapy.

Having hypothyroidism causes tendons to swell up with moisture so they rub & don’t move smoothly. I had this in my wrist with my thumb tendon, excruciating pain for months until I was referred to a physio. Sorted out with simple exercises in a couple of weeks. Much better than injections. I recommend giving physio a go & if the first can’t help keep trying. There are brilliant ones. Good luck with your future appointment.

They Had to stop physio due to causing migraine and neck problems my whole left side from neck down has entrapment’s and can’t have op due to so unwell . It a a nightmare and made to feel like it’s all due to depression and that I am hypochondriac omg when I am better I will be reporting and taking the matter further . It so sad and bad that know it all consultants don’t listen and are that arrogant they think they can treat people this way . I am so annoyed That we are neglected with no QOL .
