I think I forgot to mention a few weeks ago I visited a new endocrinologist. It’s not that Hippie Doctor wasn’t working out, but I was really sick of driving an hour down and an hour back, only to go through the same ups and downs with how good I feel … I can get the same results locally! So, the search began again. Daddy stumbled across a doctor who had just moved into our local hospital who is triple board (NERD ALERT) certified in endocrinology. I was a little worried that he had German and Polish listed as secondary languages. I love all of the people of the world, but I just can’t understand a lot of them. My fault – not theirs!
But, I figured, why not? and made the appointment.
Our first visit was pretty uneventful. I sat down in the waiting room and right away I saw a sign that said “I believe in Miracles”. That sounds alrighty to me, because I need one … plus I patiently waited for an hour, so I figured if anyone qualified for one, it’s me.
Miracle Man (I’ve never had a self-proclaimed name in my blog before … I kind of like it!) took me off of the meds Hippie Doctor had me on and went on and on about how bad Armour (my old thyroid pills) were and how they aren’t FDA approved, etc. etc. He also took me off of the Cortisol Hippie Doctor had me on. Gave me some samples, drew some blood and I was on my way. (more…)
