I think my thyroid may be buggered! Before Xmas I was really unwell, lethargic, lightheaded and lost weight unexpectedly. I had full bloods done as GP thought it might be thyroid/iron/b12, but all bloods came back apparently normal. I started feeling better, although a lot was going on and I was busy an just had to get on with it!
Saturday I think it was, I woke up feeling liked uvula (sp? Dangly bit in throat) was swollen and it's not gone away. It now feels like a lump in the throat sort of half way down. Other things seems to be adding up, I'm eating like a horse and not gaining any weight, I'm really itchy, sweating more particularly at night, funny feeling eyes, not sleeping well and waking early when I've always, always had to be dragged out of bed.
I'm going to book to see the GP again, but wondered if there was anything else that could cause the swollen feeling and symptoms? I hate going to the doctors, I always feel like I'm bothering them over nothing!
