I am glad you have found a good one. What makes him good in your book? I have an appointment to see one privately next week so I am hopeful I will be able to add to this blog :-)

For many reasons as a chronic renal patient I am at the hospital at least once a week so you seem to learn to sort the wheat from the chaff pretty quickly. Firstly he listened to me properly and acted on everything I said. He immediately said there is no way that it's right to put 3.1/2 stone on in 7 months living on 500 cal a day. He ordered a chest x ray immediately because I said my breathing was bad a scan for my stomach because it's so bloated adrenal and FBC plus other blood tests has taken me off Levothyroxine and Propranalol because it makes you feel more tired and put me on T3 to see if that helps, but most of all he said he will not stop until he gets the problems sorted and my life back on track and is an extremely kind man. He turns himself inside out to help you cant ask for more then that from anyone.

Good luck with your appointment I hope it goes well for you.

Hug's Sandie.

Fantastic news Sandie so pleased that you have someone who will take notice and get some tests done , will be interesting to see if you can lose weight on T3 alone but I'm sure really with your problems you should be eating better than you are , look after yourself and good luck keep us posted .

Hugs Jan xx
