Hidey-ho campers.
Ok so I am fatigued, sleep somewhere between 10-16 hours a day; zone off at my desk; feel like I am moving in slow-mo. Achey. Urinate non-stop. Up several times a night b/c of this latter issue. Forgetful -- like midsentence I can't remember what I was saying.. Can't concentrate -- which is a major problem with my first year of law school starting next week. I Lost 40lbs two years ago, went on celexa for depression, gained it all back and thensome (was on Meridia, and had to exercise 1.5 hours a day to get it off). Binge eating. Went on Wellbutrin to combat fatigue. Off celexa and wellbutrin, now on Effexor xr 150mg.
I go to my GP (an internist for a physical). I get the results back today:
All bloodwork is ok, except my thyroid tests:
TSH = 3.640 (range = .350-5.500)
Free T4 = 1.20 (.89-1.80)
T3 = 234.22 (60-181)My doc is referring me to an endocrinologist --
Can anyone please give me some insight into what might be wrong with me??? I won't hold you to it, but any thoughts would be helpful.They called me after 5; and I couldn't ask any ??'s really -- I have to wait until tomorrow -- and it is driving me c - r - a - z - y.
