[quote=Anonymous]I recently had blood work done on 2/22/16 and everything was normal. however I went in because i was having this strange fullness in my throat and it hurt to swallow when i ate and I was physically sick fatigued achey and could not figure out what it was. The docs are like you probably have an infection here some antibiotics and sent me on my way..Well that went away and life went on. (this is another reason i dont like just taking meds because no one really looked into anything they just said oh must be this here are some pills) on 4/22/16 i went in for bloodwork and my TSH was 86.4...i have zero symptoms, i feel excellent. My doc was so alarmed, of course his first mention is meds, i told him look life long meds for me is a last resort not a first. I want to know why I want more testing, a specialist and them more testing. What if I had an infection on 2/22 that gave me a something subacute that will rebound and your trying to make me a pharmaceutical slave for life, and it's not even going to cure it, all of this was possible when you look at what i was feeling two months ago and my doc agreed, especially since i could pinpoint it I knew something was not right in my throat and then bam! two months later my thyroid is malfunctioning. i told him the body is self healing, not everything requires a jump into medication and no one should take lifelong medication lightly. 4/25/16 we retested my TSH and we tested my Free T3 and T4 and those are both low and my TSH in just a few days went up to 104. again no symptoms. I am now waiting on testing to see if I am producing antibodies against my thyroid. i realize for some people they just want treatment for their symptoms, but i want healing, I am a strong believer in self healing. i dont claim to know why my thyroid is acting up or even what will fix it, but neither do the doctors so I say if you dont have symptoms try some holistic things that can help you heal yourself first, give you body time to and the nutrients it needs to work right and repair, our bodies are amazing at healing itself and make a dive into life long medication or surgery (which can only lead to other complication down the road) a last resort. at this point I feel absolutely fine so I will not be taking anything, but I will continue to test, monitor and evaluate with different docs the results they find.[/quote]
