Anyone else have migraines that are made worse by their thyroid issues? Just curious as I saw a neurologist this morning for my migraines (they've gotten unbearable) and she said that if I can get my thyroid regulated, my migraines will probably get better.
I have a CT on Monday and some meds to try but I REALLY would like to finally get in to see an Endo. Still trying to find one as I spoke to my doctor last night and she doesn't want to write a referral. Sheesh for the time it took to call me, she could have written one!

Oh man, migrains suck, so sorry to hear you are suffering from them.

I think the reason why the doctor doesn't want to refer out is because they only get so much $$ from your insurance company per year. Why would they want to share that $$ with a specialist? hmm? you have to think like them. I would push and push and push for it. And if your doctor is still acting like that, ask the neurologist or whoever it is you have seen for your migranes. Or better yet-- see a NEW DOCTOR!
Call the doc every day, like cl cathy and I said before in one of our converstions on here, Stir it up! Be a pain in their side and they will be happy to refer you--it will get you out of their hair! LOL...
Good luck to you. If your doctor was in your situation, you better darn well believe they wouldn't just push it aside, they would be looking for answers too!
hugs hugs & more hugs! --Lisa
