How long after your numbers were within normal range did you start to feel better?
I had silent thyroiditis starting August 2010 and my numbers are now normal in the normal range, but I still don't feel well. Why is this? The doctor acts like everything is alright now, but I do not feel well enough. I am worried that I have some kind of mental issue or something? I suspect the doctor may think I am depressed or something, but I am depressed with the fact that I cannot walk down the street without feeling tired or without any aches.
At what point is this some other issue than my thyroid? How much longer should I give it for me to feel normal after my numbers (TSH, etc.) have stabilized? I'm starting to get really depressed over this.
I was diagnosed August 1, 2010 with silent thyroiditis.
My stats are:
08/01/10 TSH 0.03
08/09/10 TSH 0.01
09/23/10 TSH 0.41
10/28/10 TSH 1.36 -- T4 0.96
12/6/10 TSH 3.80 -- T4 0.92
12/28/10 TSH 0.99
(these are all the ones I have right now)
I have a doctor's appt soon and will be tested again on 02/03/11.
