Guest guest Posted June 19, 2001 Report Share Posted June 19, 2001 About a month or so ago you had told me you were going to get me a copy of the book betrayed. I still have not recieved it and of course am now in Idaho Falls Idaho. Can I still get that book from you? Or can you tell me who the author is so I can get it myself because I have had no luck finding it. THanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 21, 2001 Report Share Posted August 21, 2001 Hi Caren, I DO more than understand your frustration! Please tell your OB/GYN that the Endocrinologist you saw didn't seem to want to work with you & your obvious hormone problems. INSIST they do an Estradiol Level (this test includes the TSH level). Also, ask about the hormone shot to get your periods started & perhaps back to normal (if it works). I cannot quickly recall the name of the hormone shot that should 'kick you back to normal periods, within 4-6 weeks from the time of the shot, however, your doctor should know. If you've been 'exposed', you should also have a pregnancy test run, just to be certain, because it's not too unusual to be doing this sproratic spotting during pregnancy -- especially the first tri-mester. Have you run one of the HPT's? If so, have done more than one or two? Hope to hear from Arden soon to help me, help you!

I should ask him to do a brain scan for the pituitary gland. Is there any other test that you know of. I called a doctor today and he said my TSH at .64 is normal and that should not be my problem. I am so irritated. I just want to scream. I am going into my Ob-gyn and put my foot down. Thanks Caren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
