Patient Comments (5)
TSH .005 is clearly hyperthyroid, not hypo! I'm sorry you felt brushed off. I remember you quite well as I considerable time trying to help. I try to use humor to lighten the mood - I'm sorry you took it the wrong way. I have never met a patient with that low of a TSH that wasn't miserable so I hope you get the help you need for your overactive, not underactive thyroid. I'm sorry that you felt brushed off - you wanted more thyroid medicine from me and that is the last thing you need!
