Thanks for the response, I feel more confident with the endo I am seeing now, the other MD I had (Prior to Jan 09) told me my thyroid was not enlarged, when the endo checked me out he said it was 2.5 times larger than it should be, I am moving from Bend, OR. to Las Vegas, NV. in May, so I will stay with this endo untill then, I appreciate your response, it helps when you know your not the only one that is going through this. Thanks Again FTB

Just a quick note to say hi! Hey Laura!!!! Please tell me what the doctors did about treating your EBV. I am so confused on the issue and think that is causing my continued problems with thyroid swelling and stuff. Maybe???

Laura I will finish answering your questions about the allergist.. he was absolutly worthless I went to him 3 times he did not even want to do blood test, but he did the lupus test and the thyroid antibodies. when i went back he said that mine were elevated and gave me atarax, I may as well have been in a coma!!!. Anyhow I asked him about allergy testing and he said if i thought I could figure it out i would have done it when I first walked in the door, but he couldn't. He told me if it was not as bad to just take the allergra that was about all he coudl do and that he would fax the thryoid results to endocr. In the meantime i went to a dermatologist and she looked at the results and said the hives were due to the elavated antibodies

laura... hi I have been on levoxyl for almost 9 years I just started the synthroid this weekend the hives have been worse i think. I can't go without the allegra and then sometimes if does not keep them at bay all day other anti hist. are so sedating. I love you pictures. thanks for the comments grandee 276

Thanks for your help, I just looked at your profile ( still haven't done mine yet) what you said about Lymes disease , you might be right. I had Lymes disease about 10 years ago. Never even put the two together.

Hi, reading your notes....myhusband gets that weird feeling you are talking about. But sometimes he passes out, he says his head feels like it is on fire, and feels like he has to go outside to cool down. But, as i said he loses consciousness...falls to the ground and is out for a very short time. It is very scary, have you ever passed out? Michele

Hey Buddy ! I gotta run, but I will catch up with you later. Glad to see you here and hope you are doing well !

Hi laura, we spoke about a week ago about Hashimotos. Well unfortunatley I had to be rushed to emergency yesterday for sensations that i felt when i had my last stroke. Good thing is that Im ok and all my tests came out normal. Bad thing is all my tests came out normal!!! Even the thyroid tests! So now what? Should i still go to an endocrinologist? Why would my thyroid be shooting all over the place? You seem very knowledgable in this area.
Im at a loss :(

Laura, I found it in another message board google somewhere. I guess it would be better to stick to medhelp and my diet from the doc.
I am on the diet for most a week and feel no bad effects which makes me wonder if I am doing it right. My son was on one for 6 wks and it was much different for him.

I know i am a bit crazy, to ask the same question again and again. But i really dont know what to do with this results. Cause i am so scared for my friend,because she have 3 childrens, smallest 2 years old.Sorry for being so mad takecare thanks for your post.

What is the armour thread?

You should see me right now. LOL! I went to the store as my thyroid is shrinking bought some kissables, and sappy movies. I never thought that I would be so emotional about my goiter leaving. I guess it was because it was my life you know. i always felt sick. I still feel it a little some tissue i s inflamed and still swollen. Doctor wants to do a check up next month on me. Hopefully this month will get better. Good to be almost human again.

Thanks for everything Laura. I have never been normal you no. I don't know what to expect from all of this. I am taking something for my short term for anxiety. I know why I have it, But I do not know how to calm myself down now. Its gotten that bad. Anyway, I hope you have a fantastic week.
