Re: *Re: Heart flutters returned!!!

[Guest guest]

Thanks, it does get confusing. I have fibromyalgia, sleep apnea and am

menopausal. Yikes! There can be a lot of crossover. I've only been using the

CPAP for apnea a couple months. I'm getting much better sleep but am still weary

all the time. So I've more to uncover. I fit so many of the hypothyroid

symptoms. Not meaning to whine but all the reading to figure it out is hard when

my brain goes on vacation and I reread the same sentence over and over! Whew.

Oh, and don't even expect me to retain it. :-( Absolutely no pop quizzes,

please. I've got to find a local doc who can be a GOOD consultant. I want my

life back. But in fairness, no wonder a lot of them aren't up on this. I figure

my best chance is to understand a lot before I go to one so I can be my own

advocate.

FYI - I never had a fast pulse when I was HyperT.

Never.

With the exception of TED, I always had HypoT symptoms

including low body temp and constipation.

Thyroid symptoms can be very confusing and not always

cut and dry.
