okay so i got my thyroid checked last week. i HAD TO CALL and ASK what it was. and the nurse said "oh there is a note for you to go to the endocrinologist". to make a long story short i demanded to speak to the doctor who said that my TSH was .19. which is hyperactive but he was saying "borderline" but my T4 was normal - or normal to him which is 1.5. so then i called back later to get the # for the endocrinologist and she told me that it is 0.019!!!! that is super hyperactive. i told her what the OB said and asked her to double check and she said that "he must have read it wrong" and i said "well could you like TELL HIM?? that's a big difference". im so mad right now and pissed off. hyperactive is NOT good and pregnancy. wtf? i had to request it and i had to call and get the results. i called my old RE bc i know at least he will call me back. i know this sh*t isnt good for the pregancy and that i could miscarry bc of this!! this seems like an emergency situation and no one seems to give a flying f*ck. im so pissed of right now. im now calling my old doctors to see what it was this spring bc it was "normal" then. not that that helps my situation now, but i still want to know the number.
