Sana,
The absolute first thing I will tell you is that for the most part Endo's
are rarely knowledgeable about the thyroid. period!
You need to find a specialists with experience with natural thyroid
medications, such as Nature-Throid, or Armour. As for your labs, if you took
your meds prior to the draw, you are getting skewed readings. You should
never take thyroid meds for 24 hours before labs. Also, your TSH levels
are not an accurate reading of what is going on with the thyroid. You need
to test for Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3 to determine ratios and then
concern yourself if you must with TSH numbers.
I strongly suggest you purchase and read "Stop The Thyroid Madness" by Janie
A. Bowthrope a patients advocate who is very knowledgeable regarding thyroid
treatment.
In addition to monitoring Thyroid, it is very important to monitor Adrenals
as they work so closely together. With Adrenals out of wack, you will never
be able to adjust your thyroid. Reproductive hormones also play a part in
regulation. There is much more to the picture than TSH and balancing
everything prior to getting pregnant is most important.
So, please read the book and then join the yahoo group
NaturalThyroidHormones@yahoogroups.com where you will find millions of
subscribers with all of your answers based on firsthand experience and
knowledge.
Abundant Blessings,
Cynthia
