I LOVE My New Doctor
The new doctor to handle my thyroid disease treatment is AWESOME!! Finally a doctor who listens and thinks outside the little square box most family doctors and endocrinologists put themselves into when it comes to thyroid disease. The things I practically begged my family doctor and endocrinologist for - that's all normal treatment options for him!
I'll summarize: He is raising my T3 and advised treatment for anemia and Vitamin D deficiency (the other doc wouldn't do a thing). Instead of making me feel like I was asking for something detrimental to my health or like I needed drug rehab for wanting my T3 raised for my thyroid like the other doctor, I actually felt like crying a few times because I was so happy to have some hope that I may eventually feel good again!
Oh yeah, the rash I was complaining about - NOT hives. It's eczema. Hydrocortisone cream and raising my T3 should help my skin problem too.
I was gushing so much about how happy I was with this doctor, my husband asked me, "How old is this doctor?" LOL. Not within an age group you need to worry about, honey!
