So had a confusing conversation with dr. After two sets of blood tests 3 myths apart it seems my tsh that was already low has decreased further. Ruling out a thyroid problem and pointing in the direction of a pituitary problem. To go back in 3 mtjs for more blood tests to measure levels. He said my hormone levels are normal but this could be disguised by the fact I have a coil fitted. Dr suspects menopause although I'm only 43, or depression or something else.... My clinical symtoms are anxiety (monthly/sporadic) aching hands and arms. (Intermittent) and I have to manage on painkillers. I'm not sure what to make of it, he gave me my levels and told me to review on dr google. Have I got a pitutory problem?is it hormonal? What can I do to help myself? Oh and he said if my levels don't improve he'll refer me to an endocrinologist. I'm not sure what to think or whether to go private or what really. Any thought????
