Thank you so much for visiting the website and for posting your reply to my thyroid story. It sounds like what happened to you is exactly what happened to me. I was misdiagnosed with a thyroid condition, put on medications, and my thyroid has shrunk in size to the point where my doctor can no longer feel it. Your legs being swollen concerns me though--when did this start happening? I've read articles that say this symptom can be connected to your thyroid but it could be from other issues as well. Has it been going on as long as you've been on your thyroid medications?
A good endocrinologist is a great place to start in terms of your thyroid. Where do you live? We could help you try to find a great endo in your area if you'd like--we could ask the visitors to the board to post who they like in your part of the country. Please post again and let us know, and also how else we can try to help you. Best in health to you, Michelle
