what are you hoping to achieve?


my nxt dr.'s appt is aug the 2nd (4 and 1/2 days away) and i will be seeing my endo and get the results of the panel he did. i hope to find out what is going on with my body and to see if it is more than hypo or what. i hope to walk out of the office with a prescription that will aggressively treat this so that i can start feeling better~

My blood draw was yesterday but I had LOTS of blood tests done- First appt. to this particular Endo. My follow-up appt is August 18th. She asked me to come back 2 weeks later but that was the earliest they had open. She did bump my synthroid up to .175 daily and said pending test results she would put me on something other than synthroid since I've been on it for years and feel like crap. She is checking me for hyperparathyroidism and diabetes too- since I have frozen shoulder right now. EEEK! Brain fog and fatigue are part of hyperparathyroidism but....who knows? I do have hypothyroidism, but she wants to rule out other conditions.

I want to achieve non-fog brain status! LOL!

I was actually released from the care of my endo several months ago.
