All of the Symptoms But Tsh Levels Ok??? Posted: 01-24-06 19:28pm
I am looking for any knowledge or insight
that may help me get back to being me. I
began noticing the changes in nov 05', it
started with the feeling of having a lump
in my throat (like before you cry). It
has never been something that I can see or
feel with my hands but pretty constant
(sometimes feeling more swollen then
others). Then from late nov to the first
of jan I gained 11lbs and 3" on my waist.
I thought surely I must be pregnant (keep
in mind we were not trying). I took 3
pregnancy test (all neg. And then got my
period. Within the last week or two i've
noticed huge changes in the way I feel.
Here is a list i've been keeping: extreme
fatigue, terrible brain fog (like i'm on
cold medicine), thirsty all of the time,
constipation (never had the problem
before), dry eyes, my hands and feet are
freezing and purple all of the time (never
had that problem before), my eyes get very
blurry, its like I look at object but I
don't really see anything, im just gazing.
This is so unlike me at all!! Im
bubbly, full of life and love what I do
but I am having such a hard time focusing.
My whole day is a constant daze.
Please help. My tsh level came back at
1.5 but my doc did not order any of the
t's or antibodies. I really think the
thyroid my be my problem based on what my
body is doing. But I am not a
phd.......Help......Please. Audrey :(

Hello audrey, are you in hidden
thyroidism? Though tsh didn't show any
supportive figures. Through symptoms you
mentioned, possibly hypothyroid?? I m in
hyperthyroidism and taking chinese medi.
Which smoothed my symptoms like my eyes
also, very important, feeling better, not
dry and not so tired now. At least start
from basic natural stuff...Cos I m afraid
prescription drugs do induce some side
effects. I took "healthguard t18" from
singapore for 1 treatment already. The
condition is improving that I m happy
about. I hope that can help you symptoms.
Now also important is for you try relax
and try to stay in a healthy dietary.

I have all these symptoms my tsh and t3
were fine. Hypo hyper and fluxuating
between both extremes, all of it runs in
my family. When I described my symptoms
to my aunt who had the hypo really bad and
no doctors believed her til she couldn't
even move and was bed-ridden for days,
everything I said she experienced at that
time. Even down to the gross
closing/spasm feeling in the throat when
smoking.

Aphil are you receiving treatment from an
endo?
The 1.5 is almost
perfect...............Have you had your t3
level checked??
If you do have high antibodies, i'm not
sure how they would treat that, because
they usually give people with high anti's
a t4, which would bring your tsh level
down, and since your's is 1.5 i'm not sure
how much lower it should go without
causing you the risk of becoming hyper

You are also desrcibing the symptoms of
sjogrens syndrome. Dry eye's are one of
the markers of the disease.
