>Hi,i had my blood sugar levels checked and they were fine.I haven't had a chance to talk properly to my GP as she was off to a meeting.I had other tests done including inflammatories,bone profile etc and as far as i understand they were okay too.I was slightly shocked that my TSH levels had changed so rapidly and it hasn't sunk in to my very weary 80 year old brain yet:-).I think thyroid problems mess everything up!.I can't wait to see what my Endo has to say on the matter.He absolutely insisted that no way would i be Hypo!.Thank god for the internet!!!!.I am sorry you have got blood sugar problems on top of everything else,it cannot be easy.....
