Some of you know that I got diagnosed with an overactive thyroid right before I found out I was pregnant. Well, I went to see my specialist back in July and he put me on an antithyroid medicine. From the day after I started taking it, I felt horribly sick. I ran a fever and starting vomiting instantly after taking it the next week. After about a week and a half I gave up taking it and was hoping for good news when my next set of bloodwork was coming up. Well, I went in for my appointment today and I am no longer overactive. I now have an uderactive thyroid. My doctor just laughed at me. When I was there the last time he went on about how I had all the symptoms of underactive but my bloodwork said otherwise.
I think my body was reacting badly to the meds because I somehow knew I didn't need it. For now, we are waiting a month and redoing the bloodwork but I no longer have to take those horrible meds. I may have to take something new next month but it will be much safer for the baby than the last medicine.
