They bleeped me on this one! Swearing about the thyroid today for good reason. 😜
WOMEN, YOU DO NOT NEED TO ENDLESSLY SUFFER! And no, your labs are NOT normal.
Thyroid anti body testing should be pulled anytime a TSH is approaching 3. If you have debilitating fatigue or have gained weight quickly, that is also cause for concern (among other symptoms, but these are at the top). If you have another auto immune disease, you are also more likely to develop Hashimoto’s. I get my antibodies checked yearly. The sooner we understand the problem, the easier the solution is. I order these labs for patients often. A true comprehensive thyroid assessment is about $100. Well worth it.
If you feel like maybe you’re not getting the care you need, then you probably aren’t. Trust that stellar intuition and start feeling better!
