Terry's Nails - Heart, Cancer or Hyper phase

[KB1205]

I am hypo with phases of hyper (5-8 years apart each phase), I have Mitral Valve Prolapse. My TSH has normally tested above 4.5 and my FT4 has been between 14-17 pmol/L. I am not on medication.
Let me start from the change - I developed allergic reactions with my hands swelling, I then developed edema around the lower back, 1 month later severe lower back pain, the doctor could not find protein in my urine but gave me antibiotics anyway. The pain decreased but did not go away until two weeks after. During these two weeks the doctor ran tests- My TSH was 2.76 uIU/mL and my FT4 is 17.00pmol/L so I am euthyroid. My Alkaline Phosphatase is low, my lymphocytes (46.2%) are high and my neutrophils slightly low (44.4%) and my westergren ESR is 8mm/hr (according to my research it should be age + 10/2, which would mean it should be 20mm/hr) and my glucose is borderline hypoglycaemic at 3.8mmol/L. My Thyroid antimicrosomal Ab: 214.96IU/mL, and my 7:00 am ACTH was 7.30pg/ml. Following the tests I had heart palpitations, was very jumpy and nervous, my temperature became normal, was sweating alot and lost two Kilograms.
My weight is now completely stable morning to evening not varying at all (which is odd since my weight normally can be 3 kilograms difference between night and day. My temperature has dropped again, I got flu for the first time in my life, my fingernails and toenails have red lines all across below the white and my Lunula? have almost disappeared.
I did notice the fingernail thing but did not pay attention to it ... I was bored and decided to check what this was its called Terry's nails.
My question is with the increase of lymphocytes and decrease in neutrophils plus the terry's nails - Which do I take a closer look at my heart, in case of congestive heart failure - My thyroid because of decrease in TSH and Terry's nails or do I completely panic because the lymphocytes are high with terry's nails and look into cancer. Please help I am paying for my tests on my own and the last batch cost me R4500, I need to get to the bottom of this.

Your antibody levels show high....you need further testing for Hashimoto's and Graves Autoimmune thyroid diseases. If you have Hashimoto's, then your tsh should be supressed to between a .50-1.0 in order to not have hypo symptoms.
Could you possibly be suffering from hypo symptoms that is compounding all of your other health issues......that would be my thoughts. I would get thyroid figured out first. If you have hashi's then a trial of meds to supress that level down might make you feel a lot better.

Hi Laura,
Thanks for your comment, I think its Hashimoto's but wouldn't know which tests to run (I gave the doctor my test list, the last time... most probably the reason he doesn't want to take me seriously) He did not even bat an eye at me having the antibodies ... think he was upset that I was right, I think he was just humouring me and hoping for everything to be alright. So my next step is the endo, if I can get an appointment without the referral.
I don't think its the hypo compunding mainly because I have had symptoms since a child and they haven't changed (except for the hyper phases). I just feel this time its different, something else is causing the thyroid to react. 2 years ago a dark patch appeared on my forehead out of nowhere last year a thin dark streak on my little finger ... possibly the first indications of adrenal problems? Around the time my hands started swelling, I also got a beautiful tan without effort... The beautiful tan lasted as long as the kidney pain and then disappeared. My instinct is to have the scan to rule out nodules and because of the new stuff maybe check for an autoimmune disorder that affects adrenal and thyroid. I would love to be on meds just to know that my body is not damaged any further but my doctor will not medicate... (except for the standard anti-depressants) I saved money to go to my grans endo... at least he won't think I am mad. I am hoping because of the family history and the positive antibodies he will see me ...
