ugh,, i got diagnosed with HYPOthyroidism (doesnt work fast enough) when i was in 9th grade,,,
its been 4 years now, i havent been on meds in 2 years because ever since then the docs i go to say its fine. i wanted one last bloodtest done just to make sure cuz it can become dangerous if not taken care of anyway,,, i just went to a doctor here on post (stationed in south korea), and she is saying that the blood test came back HYPERthyroidism,, now wat the eff!! how can i go from one to the other, but still have all of the other symptoms of HYPO?!? Im tired all the time, cold all the time, hard to lose weight, and yet she is saying i have HYPER,,, trust me,, i am not hot EVER, energetic EVER, lose weight fast EVER... so idk, she is doing more blood work (4 tubes worth), and is talking about possible radiation test. (small amount of course). idk whats going on, she says they are enlarged as well. I give up. i find out on the 12th whats goin on. but who knows!
