Doctor sent me a letter yesterday morning sayng I must phone him regarding the thyroid test I had last week (due to very bad morning sickness and feeling draned al the time), I then phoned him and he said that my thyroid gland is working far to fast, and he's sending the hospital my details but not by post he said it takes to long, he was faxing them asap and putting on it urgent, as I'm PG! no wonder I'm feeling so bad if my body is in overdrive! But what happens next?

I am hypo so no direct experience

You should get to see an endocrinologist asap
They will probably do more blood tests and your treatment will depend on the results
They might give you antithyroid drugs
Your thyroid function should be monitored every 4-6 weeks during pregnancy
