Helo Everyone
Not sure if this the right board to post, but in need of some help.
I have been having quit a few problem over the past year or so. I don't bother everyone with a long drawn out story so I will try to be short. What I was really hoping is that someone could advise what lab results to post in order to get a little hep. Here is a quick summary of what has been going on.
2 years ago dx with diabetes
put on byetta 5mg 2x a day increased to 10mg 2 x a day and metformin 500mg 3 times a day. was not happy with that dr (endo) never did anything but weigh me.
Moved on to endo #2 she did a lot of testng but never really completley addressed any one issuse. Here are some of her speculations and actual findings.
1. Found lump in throat suspected thyroid. I do have a nodule did a biopsy he was not cancerous found no meds were neccessary.
2. Through an old CT found a nodule on adrenal gland orderd an MRI the size increased she then ordered another CT(I never followed up with that) she suspected Chron's disease.
3. Ordered a bunch of urine test and blood work some of the test were done wrong. she re-ordered the lab work, my fault I did not follow up. that was July 07, I'm now ready to get things on the right track as far as my health. Today I did all the blood work she ordered back in July and I have the 24 hr urine container to fill on Sunday to bring in for Monday.
4. She also mentioned PCOS, I read about this long before her mention of and I myself feel I have it.
I am very over weight have hypertension, diabetes my chlosterol is good 146 but my good cholesterol is too low.
I will post and old labs that are suggested nad the new ones when I get them. Thanks for any help.
