I seem to be having an "off" day myself. I can't quite motivate myself to do anything. :)

How about you? Are you all having a good day? Cathy :)

Well, my day has not been so good. I left my house at 6:30 this morning for a doctor's appointment (non-thyroid related, at least we think so) and didn't get out of the clinic until almost 11:00. And we didn't even take a step forward! So I'm heading back to the neurologist next week to see where we go from here.

I did have lunch with my sister but I was so nauseated from having my eyes dilated that nothing tasted too good.

But I'm home now and trying to relax! Hopefully the evening will bring that about!

Thanks for asking!

Sue

Hi Frankie - I'm sorry that this is so difficult for you. Why not switch GPs? If you can't get a referral to an endo from this one, try another one. They might be able to either help you themselves or make the referral. While your TSH is in the normal range, something is obviously going on. I'll have to look into some other autoimmune conditions for you, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia come to mind. If you get to it before I do, see if those match up toyour symptoms. I think they might and are often confused for hypothyroidism. You hang in there!! We'll see you through til you find out what's up and start feeling better! Big hugs, Cathy
