Judith,
Hi, thanks for responding. I had my thyroid taken out 8 or 9 years ago. I've
been on synthyroid and was fine untill last year, my thyroid went wild, the endo
could not get it regulated, this went on for about 5 months.
Then what I thought was for sure a herniated disk ended up being muscle spasms
in my lower back, I also started with all these crazy symptoms, so my reg doc
sent me to a nerologist and he did a couple of tests and then told me I may be
experiencing early symptoms of MS. That really scared the hell out of me. Then
he did a muscle and nerve test about3 weeks later and it came back normal. He
told me come back in 6 months. Slowly I started feeling fine( about 6 weeks)
than wam oh, it came back and now my reg doc is sending me to get a MRI on
Monday. WHich most likely will come back normal to. From what I hear from people
with MS is that it could take years to get diagnosed. The lessions don't always
show up. So now I wait.
I plan on getting my thyroid tested tommorow, I'm sure it is low, because my
hair is falling out so much. So I'll let ya now.
THE BEST MIRROR IS A GOOD FRIEND
