I have such issues..... ugh Updated.....

So... Remember about a week and a half ago I had a wicked case of the thirsties??? I was so parched that I was continually drinking water and had no idea why???

So I had blood work done from one dr and my sugar came back fine.. no diabetes.. but I was still parched...

So my other dr takes a different set of blood work and it came back with my thyroid levels super high..

Today I have an appointment with an endocrinologist to see what's going on with my thyroid.. fabulous... BUT on a good note, I lost about 6-7lbs in the last 3 weeks which I am attributing to this thyroid nonsense... I am kinda nervous bc I hope it's nothing serious but my aunt had a thyroid problem so I am wondering if it's in our blood.. I will let you all know..

So in the midst of all this, I have my wisdom tooth out last week and ever since then I felt like my bite is off.. so I go to the oral surgeon and he tells me I am not crazy and that I need to have my tooth filed down...

So after my Endocrinologist appt, I now have to go to the dentist to have her fix my tooth (what's good is that the tooth is already dead from the root canal so I won't feel it when she fixes it!!)

But I am petrified... I am so afraid they are going to find some sort of thyroid problem... So if you can sent a little love my way.. I would be ever so greatful!!!!



**Update***

So I just got back from the dr and I have no idea.. He is sending me for a glucose tolerance test to rule out diabetes.. said that the drugs I am already on MAY be the cause of the high thyroid and then something about my estrogen levels.. W-T-F.... so I have to go back in 3 weeks after all these lab tests I have to take and then go from there... and I am STILLL THIRSTY!!!!!

Sorry you're dealing with all that. Health problems are just the worst. Good luck!

Oh sweetie, don't worry too much !
If there is a problem, you have caught it early.
Thyroid problems are treatable with the right meds.
Here are some for you.

so sorry hope it all turns out OK

ugh, what crap!!!

Sorry babe.

Ok, so if you're losing weight, thirsty and have high thyroid hormone levels then it might be hyperthyroidism. Really not that big of a deal. You'll get some meds and should be perfectly fine.

Hope this all works out for you really quickly. Feel free to FM me any questions.

Speedy recovery!!

Sorry to hear you getting hit from all ends with health issues. When it rains it certaintly pours.

When I read your initial posting I was thinking it sounded like you should see an endo. Thyroid issues hyper, hypo, and cancer of the throid are semi-easy to treat but require frequent monitoring. If you wanted another endo's opinion feel free to FM me for my endo's #.

I hope it all turns out well!!!!!!!!
