GP gives me referral to another endo
« Thread Started on Nov 6, 2009, 2:19pm »

I'm so happy. Saw my GP yesterday and she gave me a referral to another endo. Saw my regular endo last Friday and he still insisted that I wasn't suffering hyper symptoms in July when my TSH was at 0.17. Normal range is 0.35-5. She said I definitly was hyper in July. So now I wait to hear back with the appt. time. Hope it's not to long a wait.
To be on the safe side my GP did bloodwork to see where my levels were at. I should have the results by next week.

Glad your doc is keeping an eye on things until you see the new Endo. Look forward to those results as well!
