I went to the Endocrinologist about a month ago. I had to call them twice to get the results of the massive amount of bloodwork they did.
Everything is normal.
I'm unsatisfied, but that is the answer I always get. Yes, he tested for free T3 and T4 levels, etc. He tested my pituitary, He tested me for diabetes..etc. etc. All of it.
I guess it boils down to this: There is no blood test for Fibromyalgia, and that's what I've got. I've already been dx'd with that, so I guess this is just more of that.
And I have to take responsibility for the fact that I've gained 30 pounds in the past year. So I will.
And now I get to do something about it, like tracking my calories and exercising every day and drinking tons of water.
Yay, fun! But that's reality.
So, there it is. I think I complain too much.
