HDL-85 (very good..whew)
TRYCLICERIDE-152 (borderline high)
VLDL-30 ( The only info I can fdind on this is it is optimal to be between 25-50 % of your overall cholesteral so that would make mine good ?>!??

There are other things that can cause some of these symptoms besides the thyroid.

From what you are telling me is that majority of the people are misdaignosised. Interesting that was the first thing they thought of with me and even know when I am a bit under the weather. Then again I know they look at hypo a bit different than hyper and the symptoms are completely different. Hypo is more or less your body attacking the thyroid.
Interesting how things are changing since I first was diagnosised.
Actually, Hashimoto's is when your body is attacking your thyroid.

I do not count myself lucky. I believe I have very good doctors who are knowledgeable. In both my mother's case, my own, and a few friends I know who are dealing with a thyroid disorder, we have not experienced the type of problems you have had with it, which is not right in the least (I completely sympathize with you in dealing with such misdiagnosises). It could be contributed to the fact that Houston has one of the best medical field in the country and most assuredly the Medical Center is one of the best in the world or that we have all been as you say lucky to find the right doctor.
I am not going to get into a huge debate about it. Suffice it to say that from my research both recent and in the past, I am not in complete agreement with everything you have shared. No right or wrong here just simple disagreement.
