[More]ork injury)..I am not sure what that means all I know its reversal of the neck bones..I was told by one Dr I have poly glandular disease and he referred me to a endocrinologist but I do not get far with her on anything. I fear I have osteoarthritis in my knees..untreated and undiagnosed, and I have horrific problems with my left SI joint..untreated and undiagnosed, recently Ive been diagnosed with diabetic neuropathy that affects my left leg up to my knee, I also have recently been placed on birth control to stop my periods because of cysts and a tumor on my overy's but my ob/gyn swears its not PSOS even though that was the reason I was referred to this Dr.
I do suffer from depression and anxiety but I fight it off and remain positive. I have other things going on but it is most likely related to the hypothyroidism (that I have battled and went through 3 Drs to get my levels down to at least a high normal), I'm still suffering from being hypo, the birth control seemed to throw my levels off.. I know my levels are going up because I get a lump in my throat, painful breasts, among other nuances.
I want to overcome pain and balance my (hormone) conditions so I am not suffering and can get back to life. I am wanting to progress in the medical field as I was a CNA but cannot endure the lifting, and being on my feet long anymore. I have three wonderful pre teen children, I am 34, I enjoy art and am thankful for the carpal tunnel surgery as I can now draw portraits again, I also enjoy poetry, reading, cooking, gardening, and antiques.
Im relieved to find a reason/answer of why I have been feeling so horrible for the past month. My thyroid levels have went up. I am hoping that my endo dr will do someth...
Just a quick note to say hi!
