I went to my Dr after I found out I was pregnant, as I have PCOS and wanted to see if I needed to do anything differently.
She said no, but did say that she was a bit worried about my thyroid as previous test results (read: BACK IN BLOODY JUNE) were borderline and that she would get me tested for it again and put me on meds if so, no big deal. I have been tested for this before and other Drs have always just gone "meh, yeah, it's okay" and nothing more done.
At the time of the conversation with the Dr about this, she wasn't particularly optimistic about the pregnancy as I was 13dpo or something. I have seen her since, and she's not mentioned the thyroid issue. It's only come back into my mind this week as my neck has felt tight and slightly swollen.
I'm now panicking like crazy and I just don't know what to do - I can't get in to see her for another 2 weeks and am a bit worried about the weird neck issue. I've googled it (WHY!) and I've seen that the neck thing is an indication of a thyroid problem, I'm also suffering with HG which can be as a result of a thyroid issue and to top if off apparently it's a mega issue if left alone.
I'm 8 weeks and now petrified! Do I need to ring somewhere now or can this wait until Monday?
Thank you in advance!
