HYPOTHYROID NEWBIE NEEDING HELP/ADVICE

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi,

I'm a Hypothyroid "newbie" ( with dangerouly low B12 ) who found out only 4 weeks ago, following a full "MOT" bloods. ~ I went to the GP felling like the perverial Cr@p thinking it was down to very long days, and just hoping to have something to tell the boss so could get the length of my working days cut.

(( I'm an hourly visting caregiver ))

you can imagine my surprise to be told I'm *ILL!... eek

I'm a little frustrated too that I have *Other stuff* including gynea,  that is now being clumped in with "well that's down to your thyroid" adding to frustration.

(( I'm unsure if the OTHER STUFF actually is? ))

I have a question, ok 2 in 1.

Q) Did anyone else actually feel WORSE after they found out?

if so, then how long til you felt better?

Does anyone else have gynea issues? referal was URGENT!~ I've been and refered on to have a CT 2 weeks ago and waiting for results. cry

I've read other posts but nothing from a NEWBIE point of view.

    I'm sure it is coincidental, however after having my dosage doubled I feel WORSE overnight.

    Had anyone else has this happened? Do I need to be concerned or IS it as I suspect merely coincidence?
