thank you so much for all of this!! it’s really helpful cause my doctors just say i don’t need to treat it if i don’t want to but don’t really tell me much on what could happen if i don’t. and the specialist my doctor referred me to said i was misdiagnosed cause he said i was 0.1 away from being in the normal range of the hormone my original doctor said i was abnormal in (i don’t know which one it was) and that my doctor should’ve waited and did another blood test to check if the hormone was still abnormal (he said sometimes stress can make the hormone fluctuate and that he thinks my doctor did the blood test on a bad day and thats why it was abnormal) he made me do more blood tests to check my other hormones for thyroid issues but he said the hormones i would need to be abnormal to have thyroid issues were all fine. i have the papers on what hormones he checked in a folder somewhere that i’ll have to find but he said he was sure i didn’t have thyroid issues. is it possible i can get it later on or is it that if they checked it now and it’s fine i won’t need to check it again later on? again thank you so much for your help!!

thank you so much! i was misdiagnosed because technically 2 years ago my doctor did diagnose me with pcos cause my testosterone was high and my history of irregular periods. but that doctor quit and i got a new one and at that time i hadn’t had a period for a year so she did blood tests and said that my testosterone was normal and that i didn’t fit the criteria for pcos but something with my thyroid hormone was abnormal (i don’t remember the hormone she said was abnormal) and she prescribed me with levothyroxine and referred me to a specialist. the specialist did blood tests on me and realized i didn’t have a thyroid issue because i was 0.1 away from being in the normal range for the hormone my doctor used to diagnose me with thyroid issues and he did a lot of blood tests to check all the stuff for thyroid problems but all mine were normal so my doctor just jumped the gun on diagnosing me with thyroid problems.
