Hi all,
I really hope somebody can help me...I have been really unwell off and on for around 10 years now and have family history of underactive thyroid. I suffer all of the symptoms but my results come back "within range"- I know I am not the only one. Anyway I had a sever episode of Anaphylaxis a couple of months ago with no cause- I have had allergy tests done and I have none. Th private doctor suggested that I was autoimmune, which really didn't surprise me. I have had lots of tests done since and they all seem to point towards Hashimotos- however I have not had a diagnosis. I have had sacans on my thyroid and it is enlarged with nodules. My referral to endocrinology through the NHS has just been rejected as it is "irrelevant" apparently so I cannot get diagnosed. Does anybody know of a good private doctor that deals with autoimmune disorders, or better still Hashimotos? I would be so so grateful if anyone could recommend. I am so desperate to be pointed in the right direction, even if they cannot help me at least with a diagnosis I know where to start my research.
Really appreciate your help,
Holly
