I finally went to see an endocrinologist. I've been having weird symptoms (related to hormone imbalance) for about a year now and after some prodding, I finally decided to go to the doctor.
I had a nice appointment and she did a TON of blood work, as I suspected she would. Then, during the exam she said, "You have a nodule on your thyroid. I'm sending you to get an ultrasound.". What?!
So, I'm off to get an ultrasound this afternoon. I'm not worried...after doing much research, I don't have any of the symptoms and they say that 95% of them are benign. But still...it's a little strange.
I don't expect to know anything for another two weeks or so, but I'll be sure to update.
Wow! I'm glad that you went to see a specialist. You will be in our prayers. Keep me posted.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michele! Nothing to report yet. I'm doing a cortisol test at home. I'll bring that in tomorrow morning and then schedule my follow up appointment for sometime next week.
