Question: Test Results Since 97 + Full Body Muscle Pain
| bchoma
- Fri May 18, 2007 4:01 am |
36 Year old Male with Hashimodo's Hypothyroid and taking 125mg of Armour. Tried Synthroid when I first started and felt no relief from my symptoms.
Over the past few years I have ever increasing muscle pain. Changing the amount of Armour I am on does not seem to make any difference regarding the pain. Fatigue is very easy to achieve and recovery time is very long. Any type of excercise is painful.
I really need some advice on a good Dr in the North Jersey-NY-NY area. I have three children who I want to be able to do much more with than watch TV over the coming years.
Any help or advice would be extremely appreciated.
First of all the family Dr I use is no expert in my condition but he has been pretty good. After looking at all my labs I feel he may have not been looking at the big picture regarding the Hashi.
Today I had blood and urine samples taken and he is having all the tests I requested plus some he thought might show something. He finally agrees that something other then just the thyroid must be going on because of the pain/numbness and loss of strength.
I will start with the latest and work back to the beginning. If I only post the Thyroid panel thats probably all that was done at that time.

Wanted to lower my dosage from what looks like 2 of synthroid to .088. I was still feeling horrible so I started looking for another Dr. This guy would not even consider any other medication or dosage level.

My largest concern looking at all of this is the SGPT. Maybe it's not that high but it is consistently out of range the past few years meaning something is going on with my liver.
It's also interesting to note that I am actually needing less Thyroid meds to get things in range. From the looks of the results I need have a decrease in my dosage again.
Thanks for your answers in advance
Bob
