Well that was a giant waste of time. I paid a $30 copay just to have the doctor tell me to take Aleve and wait for my specialist appointments. Yeah, that's a great idea doc. My...

Interesting. My ferritin was in the 30s way back in July even though I eat a ton of meat. How did you find your doctor?

First day of the carbohydrate intolerance diet did not go well. I'm very sore, and my joints ache. I'm cutting out the cheese, sour cream, and nuts that supposedly are a-okay on...

No, I didn't even know that was a thing. I asked for a full thyroid panel from my doctor a couple of months ago, but my PA refused to order the full one. She just ordered the same...

I'm pretty much going through this now. My limbs and left quad have a tendency to go completely dead hours after I eat gluten (and other carbs and sugar) so I have cut them all...

Thanks Vanby and GAJulie for replying to my massively frustrated pity party from last night. Right before bed, I found something called the two week test to help diagnose...

I give up. There's got to be something else going on with me than gluten issues. I've had pretty horrible all-over joint pain, muscle soreness, stiffness, and insomnia since...

Well, after two months of having joint pain/aches and muscle soreness, all so bad that I thought I might have to take a leave of absence from work because I simply could not sit...

Well that sucked. My PA's assistant called to tell me my lab results yesterday. Everything's great according to my PA, including my B12. I'm to supplement with 1000mcg of B12 and...

I had a doc apt on Monday afternoon. The PA ordered a lot of tests, and although they haven't called me yet, I found my results online. She did not run the full thyroid panel because...

Well, since I mixed up the date of my appointment, I definitely got it in time. I go NEXT Monday. Luckily, I figured it out before I left! Oops! My doc will already...

So, my joint pain/aches, muscles soreness got worse after I wrote my original post. I even ended up having breathing issues too for a few days (hard to describe). The breathing...

Thanks for the information. I had some blood testing back in July. TSH: 2.680 (.450-4.500) T4, Free (Direct) 0.81 (0.82-1.77) [It's a tad low, but none of the doctors...

Six weeks ago, I went gluten-free. I only eat veggies (except nightshades), fruits (except bananas), and meat. Most of my symptoms have resolved on this eating plan. I'm fairly...
