Hi there. No problem. I just didn't want my question to get lost in the shuffle. :) Gosh I hope I didn't come across as rude. :( I am SO SORRY if I did I just am looking for answers as last week I had one of the worst days of my life (I'm 34). So I'm kinda desperate for info from those who understand and have been there. :)

As for your question, I've had my thyroid checked a bunch of times because I also suffer from obesity (I'm a Post Gastric Bypass Surgery Survivor, but haven't even lost 1/2 my weight although since stopping Depaokte, I am losing again). So yes I have had it checked.

I remember one time a Doctor telling me it was actually on the high side (over active side, I guess) and that might be why I have so much anxiety. But that was years ago and in a different part of the country.

Maybe I'll go see my General Practitioner as he always listens to me and respects my feelings and opinions. And I don't think he's ever denied me being tested for anything. So I think I'll ask him for the saliva test this time instead. He's so easygoing he'll probably ask why but then say ok, if you think it will help. LOL He's great!

Hmmm I'm gonna call them right now. So when I do have my test done, I will let you all know what's going on.

Take good care and thanks for your response. I really hope and will pray that you get the help you need. Life can be hard enough as it is. Having anxiety only makes it harder.

Hugs,
Michelle

> About seeing a neurologist...I had all of the tests done. MRIs, EEGs, etc. Nothing is wrong with me. I thought for sure I had a brain tumor or temporal lobe epilepsy, but no, it's my brain chemistry. I think the only test I haven't had done is a PET scan but my doctor said that wouldn't show anything.
