Re: Normal blood tests - comment to Chris

[Guest guest]

One " sign " my doctor used in my original diagnosis was my Triglycerides

(sp?) were VERY elevated. My cholesterol, blood sugars, everything

everything was just normal. However, my Tri was " off the charts " as per my

doc. He immediately put me on TRICOR and told me to start my own medical

folder...not just my son anymore. I actually didn't believe him at the time.

But as I sit here in the midst of a fairly painful attack, I believe him

now. (That was 1 1/2 years ago, BTW) soooooooooooo, maybe you should check

your Triglyceride levels. The only thing else I have ever had screwy is my

Thyroid Hormone Panel. I have taken meds for hypothyroidism for years. It

shows up normal on a " complete " blood work up, however when they do the

hormone panel for JUST thyroid function - mine wasn't working at all!

Just thoughts here. Hope something of it might help you~
