thyroid, diabetes and testosterone!
From: David - 1 year 13 weeks ago
I am on hormone therpay for low testosterone. I have been told that testosterone can increase thyroid binging globulin....perhaps then leading to symptoms of hypothyroidism.....and this can then complicate syptoms of diabetes?
I have tingling in my hands and feet, chronic feelings of fatigue, and I get these feelings of huge hunger and I get dizzy and weak, but even after eating it doesnt go away.
I have had FGT and they seem to come up normal each time. My TSH levels are low....on low reference limit - and yet my T4 and T3 is also low....suggesting a pituitary issue.
I feel like a mess~!
HELP~!

I'm new here & saw your posting - I hope that the doctors are able to get everything leveled out for you. I can really relate to what your going through - I have been on Estrogen replacement for over 25 years - I have been hypothyroid for nearly 15 years and a few days ago I was diagnosed as hyperglycemic. I am also getting dizzy and extremely weak, hunger pains - oh yeah. Worst of all is I am nearly 100 lbs over weight now (did that in about 6months) and can't seem to loose the weight.
Any way - hang in there and keep trying. It will eventually all level out.
Dear David,
I can't tell you how close your letter was to me if you only knew what I have gone through. 3 years ago I was diagnosed with Graves desease. They monitored my levels for over a year before desiding to iradiate my thyrod to kill it. 70 lbs later and 2 years I feel like crap. As with you my testosterone level is that of a little kid I think my wife has more than me. I have no sex drive and I'm now on testosterone injections. By the way they do nothing either. I wish I could offer you more help, but I can't if you hear of anything please let me know.
Thanks for listening. Jeff
Its a very critical issue and instead of blogging you should consult doctors or professional locums like Australian Medical Locums. I am recommending them as I have trust on them they are highly professionals and will help you in solving your issue. Moreover, their charges are quite nominal as well.
I strictly recommend not to hold off until you earn big sum of cash to order all you need! You can get the personal loans or secured loan and feel yourself free
You know that you can have a job on dissertation writing service or essay writers, because men really want to know the good enough topic as this good topic or custom thesis and they buy research papers online.
