Well, I know my last results (although the nurse wouldn't tell me over the phone yesterday WHAT they were without talking to the doctor) were "abnormal" and thus that is why he sending me to the endocronologist. I Just want to KNOW what my own results are. Why can't I have my OWN INFORMATION without having to go make a stinking appointment with my gp first?
It annoys me to no length.. just like the heart monitor results- I still have no clue what they were. My doctor just sends me the results in the mail about 2 weeks after the tests are performed, even when they are abnormal. Makes me crazy!
Anyway, that's a whole other rant..
But I found it interesting over at psyched my husband has been reading how sometimes people are diagnosed with bipolar (becuase of the rapid cycling) and really they have an underlying thyroid problem that is going untreated.
I can't help but wonder if that's my case since all these brain drugs really aren't helping me.
And, up until December, I had never experienced anything like this in my life. I lived a normal, stable life. Then BAM! I had a traumatic experience with my dad, I got a bad infection (white count was very high), had a panic attack, got put on Lexapro- whacked out, and I have NOT been the same since. This has been almost 4 months now.
Can a person just suddenly become bipolar 2?
My dad is bipolar and my mom has hypothyroid so either way I go, I'm doomed. LOL
I have a great gene pool. *smirk*
