Hyperthyroid or postpartum thyroiditis?
| Mon, 06-11-2007 - 12:17pm |
I had my baby about 7 months ago and my routine blood work (physical) turned up low TSH (0.149)...after a 12-hr fast blood draw. I don't know anything about thyroid issues, except from the little bit of online research I've done...
I need to see an endocrinologist. Can you tell me what factors he will look at to determine whether I've got hyperthyroidsm or postpartum thyroiditis?
I don't know what symptoms I have because of sleep deprivation and stress associated with a new baby.
TIA.
