I have felt like crap for 2 years now. Tired/sluggish, achy in the joints and muscles, gained 40 pounds in the last year or so, temple pain/headaches, dizziness/light-headed, constipation, dry/itchy patches on skin, inconsistent menstrual cycles, low body temp (last week 96.3-97.5), depression/restless (just not interested in much and have trouble sleeping and or getting to sleep), itchy/gritty eyes with a sensitivity to light, major brain fog, ear aches, snoring/sleep apnea, etc. I just haven’t felt right or like myself… Sometimes I get weird pains and I experience shortness of breathe and tightness in my chest. Pretty much all symptoms of hypothyroidism that I have read and heard about. I have to force myself to get up everyday and go to work and do the normal daily household stuff. Much less feel like doing anything extra. Sometimes the dizziness, eye issues and brain fog scare me driving to work. About a year ago I went to the doctor for an ear ache and a goiter was found on the right side of my neck. My GP did blood work for thyroid and all came back within "normal range". I then had an ultrasound and a mass 2-3cm x 6cm was found and I was sent to a Endo/specialist. The specialist at first seemed to think the right side of my thyroid needed to be removed and sent me to a hospital to start the proceedings for that (I had to go there since I don't have insurance), she also did blood work and said all levels were "normal". The hospital did a biopsy June 1st and it came back benign. Now the specialist says we just need to "watch" the mass and set me up for another appt in Dec. She said my symptoms don't match those of a thyroid problem but everything I’ve read and people I have talked to say they do. She suggested I get back with my GP who had sent me to her originally since I had symptoms and a 2-3 x 6 goiter. What do I do now?
