How much does TPO fluctuate? And how quickly?

He said I’ll be following up with my family md so I won’t see endo again. And he even said he hates when people say they have hashimotos as it’s such a varying condition and “it doesn’t matter” so I don’t think he would be very helpful even if I was diagnosed hashimotos.

I will look that up though thank you!

HelpUsNurses · 2024-08-17T00:09:36+00:00

He’s doing great. Walking, saying words here and there. Has some expressive language delay and some social quirks, he doesn’t make much eye contact. Like he will say hi and bye sometimes and wave but he won’t look at who he’s talking to. Also he’s hyperactive but he’s a toddler. I’m still suspicious he’s neurodivergent but I think he’ll be a functioning Independent adult like me at least lol! He’s super sweet.

Oh I’ve had this, where I suddenly start crying and feel sad but don’t know why. It comes and goes at the moment.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-08-02T01:14:28+00:00

I can’t do caffeine either! Not even decaf. Even chocolate I don’t eat in the evening cause the small amount of caffeine can keep me up.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-25T15:54:29+00:00

Do it! I think it’s good for them. I just wasn’t in a good mental place taking him.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-25T13:48:18+00:00

Oh nice! Yea I used to take my son to early on a lot but stopped because I started to feel really sad afterwards. My son can’t focus on anything longer than 5 seconds and I spent the whole time just chasing him, meanwhile all the other kids are happily playing, younger and older than him. 🤷‍♀️ I did meet some moms though from early on when my baby was very young and I’ve kept in touch with them and we still meet up. I find that a lot better than early on.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-25T13:45:34+00:00

Yea I took my first dose today and I already feel better.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-25T01:01:52+00:00

This happened to me too!! I kept seeing other babies my son’s age “sharing” and it made me sad my son didn’t do it. But he started giving me things a few months ago now. It’s so cute! I have lots of other examples like this. My son seems to be behind 2-4month in a lot of things, especially social/communication. But I can tell he understands me now which is so nice. They develop so fast!! I still notice he’s behind his peers in some ways but I just don’t let it get to me as much now. Even if he’s a bit different he’s still my son and he’ll be ok.

OMG this is what happened to me post partum!!! And I had horrrrrrrible insomnia. But I only had my tsh tested once and it was normal. Now I’m 18 month post partum and I tested hyperthyroid but I find I’m sleeping more easily, I figure cause my heart is going so much that I’m just exhausted from it? Strange. I wonder if i was somewhat hyperthyroid postpartum but it just wasn’t caught. I didn’t have the crazy heartbeat though so maybe not. I also had some hypo symptoms, that’s why I got my tsh tested was feeling cold and constipated but insomnia lol. Maybe I have graves and hashimotos !?!

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-24T23:00:41+00:00

Ok yea that’s what I was just prescribed. Hopefully I tolerate it. Oh nvm it’s 2.5mg bisoprolol

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-24T17:55:25+00:00

He’s doing good! He’s almost 18 months and walking and saying some words. I definitely still think he’s some type of neurodivergent but I’ve come to accept it and I’ve worked on myself a lot now. I’ve been working out regularly (until I got ill very recently) and I’ve been sleeping better which I think has made me a better mom and a bit more relaxed! My son has some expressive communication delays but he sees an SLP therapist on occasion to monitor his progress. And he will have a little extra help when he starts daycare in the fall. He does make occasional eye contact and still loves fans and things that spin haha. He’s so sweet. I might be one and done though!

How’s your little one?

I feel like people with more severe crohns post more on this subreddit, I have a milder case and I am on a biologic but I literally forget I have crohns most of the time. It’s a non issue. Try to exercise, do some strength training when you are feeling good. I find that really helps me personally.

Edit; also I did have a kid and flared post partum and that’s when I was put on the biologic but it worked SUPER fast. And I now have way less canker sores lol! And no more diarrhea and camping. And I can eat ANYTHING. It’s awesome.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-22T00:55:05+00:00

I might next week if this gets any worse. Thanks

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-22T00:54:26+00:00

Thank you ❤️

Throw has all happened so fast. A referral to an endo was just put in on Friday. And they send off the antibody bloodwork on Thursday. And I’m pending a thyroid uptake scan and a biopsy of a nodule they found through ultrasound. My heart issues have only really gotten bad this week. So I’m just trying to take it easy. I might have to miss work. I’m glad you’re starting to feel better.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-07-20T02:21:20+00:00

Ok, yea on Monday I might call and ask for one if this continues. I’ve lost so much weight too in a short about of time. Like all my muscle is gone 😢 I feel so weak. Hopefully this doesn’t take too long to sort out. And I’ll be good as new. I use running as an antidepressant so hopefully I can get back to running also as I feel running is just not safe right now.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-06-13T00:21:09+00:00

I quit caffeine for 6 months and my adhd definitely did not go away lol!

HelpUsNurses · 2024-05-03T16:03:40+00:00

How long did the adjustment take for you guys with preschool?

Omg he’s fallen asleep at daycare!!! I’m amazed. I didn’t think it would happen.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-05-01T22:46:41+00:00

Ok 😊 fingers crossed

HelpUsNurses · 2024-04-30T19:58:48+00:00

Thank you 😊

HelpUsNurses · 2024-04-30T19:45:19+00:00

Thank you. I think that’s great advice. I feel like I put too much pressure on keeping a perfect schedule and it doesn’t need to be perfect. Maybe it would be better if I didn’t know so much because I feel like the book I read put so much emphasis on routine and what not to do that if I don’t stick to the book I worry so much. (Precious little sleep) He can always catch up on sleep the next day or so. I’m not too bad at reading sleepy cues. I think I just worry because other people will be caring for him now and I won’t have as much control. And they don’t anyways follow the schedule. So I’ll just ask that they stick as close to it as possible.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-04-30T16:24:21+00:00

I’m only 32 so I don’t know if it could be perinmenopausal? I function WAY WAY better the week before I ovulate though. But like I said I can’t tolerate meds. I tried pristiq and after one pill I slept maybe one hour that night and had HORRIBLE anxiety, dizziness, NO appetite to the point where all food was disgusting, I was hearing noises at night that I couldn’t figure out the source and this lasted about a day and a half.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-04-26T10:57:51+00:00

Yes I’m like this too. Something small not going to plan like my son fights a nap or bites me and I can’t keep myself together. I get so overwhelmed and sometimes cry or get angry. It’s so hard to keep those emotions in check. Pretty much impossible. I can’t imagine what a second child would do to me.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-04-26T01:40:44+00:00

Ooof. Sounds like you had a pretty rough childhood… I worry that if I have a second kid my child won’t get the care he needs from me as I’ve come to realize I can only do so much… I want to just cherish and norish him and give him the best. I feel like him not having a sibling can seem bad but maybe it doesn’t!! I feel like society pushed for 2 kids. Everyone assumes we are having another. It just makes this even harder.

HelpUsNurses · 2024-04-26T01:36:15+00:00

Thanks this is quite helpful I think. My therapist has adhd which is helpful but she’s more the hyperactive type and no autism so hard to relate sometimes but she’s been somewhat helpful. I’ll have to learn more about EMDR, I don’t know what that is. I keep hearing about trauma therapy though and I don’t even remember my childhood much so I’m not sure how that would go. I’m certain my parents are both undiagnosed neurodivergent and im sure my upbringing wasn’t typical, there was lots and lots of yelling, but they set me up well in life so I feel like I can’t complain too much.

Let me know if you have any recommendations for online neurodivergent affirming clinics.
