Perfect storm
I need to rant for a mintue. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism when I was 8 years old. I'm 30 now it's been a pretty easy disease for me personal throughly my life. but for the last year I have been been trying to deal with horrible anxiety can't breath can't hear, see or Focus feeling of needing to run away sometimes the need to use the bathroom or threw up. I have been just putting it off to stress due to my job being highly to Manning and planning my wedding which is three months alway. The attacks normally happen when I'm out at a dinner date or after a very stressful situation at work like everyday or every other day I have one for about a year now. I have counted four days without any attacks last week. However Yesterday morning I had another panic attack said to myself ok great way to start the day. Bring it on. It's well over due. Trying to I cope with it to be normal. Threw up and went to work still not feeling right as it was different the any thing I felt before. I went to work and felt like my heart was going to explode. I was confused disorient and high blood pressure. I was rush to the hopsital come to find out after all the testing ekgs X-rays blood tests. I was having a thyroid storm and was dehydrated. This was the worse thing I ever had to go though in my life, it was so unexpected out of the blue. After giving me salt water and made me lay down to calm the blood pressure I was able to be discharged. My doctor can't see me until tomorrow. So I'm at home being anxious on what's wrong with me scared to take my meds that it's going to bring on another episode. I'm scared on what the doctor is going to do. I haven't missed a dose. I haven't taking more then recommended. I stopped drinking sugar over 3 months ago like soda. I'm not pregnant. I haven't lose a lot of weight or gained any. I'm also to chicken to go back to work. Ughs**** this is horrible.
Has anyone experience this too? How did you cope with the attacks. What are they doing to help your thyroid storm. I would not wish this on anyone. Where you ever misdiagnosed with the wrong thyroid disease? Please tell me your story.
