Good news, everyone- I convinced my doctor to prescribe a higher level of Synthroid. She agreed that our goal should be to get my TSH between 1-2. Turns out, my nurse just had the old fashioned information (that TSH is normal if under 6) and not my doctor. Hooray for educated family practitioners! Am really hoping that things will turn around for me once I get on the right level of thyroid medication. Right now all I do is work and sleep. And sleep.
On a manic upswing today so I'm pretty hyper. I hate this disorder!!! Neurontin just isn't keeping my moods under control!
Best wishes,
Heather
