rising TSH levels
my tsh is now .0009 My vit D is 24.2 and my calcium is 9.5 My doc thinks I have thinning bone, When I lower my dose of Armour 150 mg, I become diabetic with metabolic syndrome. Any suggestions?
Dr. thinks you have thinning bone? Because of the low TSH?
The simple way to find out is a DEXA bone density test. At age 58 it is a good screening to have anyway.
I requested the test because no one knows how long I was hyper before it was diagnosed. My Dr. says my DEXA results look good. Nothing bad enough for a fosamax prescription.
So the conclusion is - I was not hyper long enough to cause bone loss or to make me skinny! Now I have one less thing to worry about.
