I am a 37 year old female, who has Hashimotos. My doctor "forgot" to tell me that the results from my last blood test (2 months ago) left me at a TSH of 27. The office called and said they would call in a script for my Armour to be raised from 30mg to now, 90mg. I still feel way off, after being on it for about ten days. I have a very hard time moving, my body is sore, super light headed all of the time, cannot focus, the tension (stress of course) in my neck is terrible. My main concern is that my resting heart rate has been around 105 for the last few days. Bp around 139 over 79. It feels like I am on a roller coaster ride with the head rush, gut twist, and now, heart fluttering. Stick out the Armour? (seems like ten days isn't really long enough to do anything) Should I go back to Levothyroxine or Levothyroid? I also take 37.5mg of Phentermine, Mangesium oxide 400mg, 75-50mg Triamterene-HCTZ. This is all a little over a year old/new to me. I am trying to get a grip, here, because I work too much, and have always typically been "high strung", if you will. So, I thought I was adjusting well. Seeing how it only took about 9 months for anyone to be able to tell me what is wrong. I flip flopped between Neurologists who told me (in the language I understand), that after several tests, looks like there are holes in my brain and I may have early onset Parkinsons or Alzheimers. Then, after figuring out I have Hashimotos, the last of the Endocrinologists said not to worry, I'm sure it's all thyroid related. I feel like a yo-yo. I'm supposed to wait it out, until "we" can figure out the perfect dose for me. This entails waiting every 3 to 6 months..... and what? Yes, I know, check my levels. But in the meantime, I have to figure out if I feel lousy because of the thyroid, or am I having a "stress" day? My motivation, body aches, hot flashes, oh yeah... thank God I have a lot of hair, because it's falling out like nobody's business. On the bright side, while my doctor forgot to check my thyroid levels two months ago, I am, Cancer free. That is a "good" positive! I have a goiter, and benign tumors that, apparently are still growing, but doc doesn't want to just take it all out. He wants to wait for that to be the last resort. I'm confused. I was just told I DON'T have Cancer, isn't that pushing it on the "last resort note"? I never write on forums, usually just peruse, because I am really trying to understand this whole "no real answers" disease! Clearly, I am a control freak. I'm okay with that. Not being able to control any of this, with now, the uneased feeling of nobody else getting a handle on it. Somewhere in here there's a question. Anyone want to tell me what to ask, who to ask , where to find a doctor that won't forget I'm a person, not a file, and try to remember that I am relying on the "doc" for pertinent info?
