Guest guest Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Hi everyone, I try and keep up with all the emails but sometimes I just cant. I have Hashimotos......been diagnosed with it for several years, and have always been on synthroid.......started out at 125...went to .75....than on .50 for years....I finally talked my doc into increasing it back up to .75......which he did, and at first I felt great.....I got a call from his office, and they wanted me to drop down to .25....he explained my pituary gland was not sending out the signals ( what all this means is I have NO idea)......my last test results were. T4 was 1.8 TSH was 0.04........he said since I felt better, he wouldnt drop my dosage.... BUT now, I am back to where I was before.....so exhausted I cannot stand it, my house is a mess, making a lot of mistakes at work, cant think clearly....and I am having a lot of severe swelling....I can feel it in my face, my arms, my hands, and the past two weeks, severe swelling in my legs.....the doc had given me water pills, and that seems to help but it isnt this time...I also seem to be losing some of my lower eye lashes....HELP Candy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
