Need to vent about doctors!
Ok so this last year has been over the top with weird medical things for me. However, recently I went to the Dr. For some testing because I've been feeling so off. Tired, angry, strange weight loss, hot, cold, but mostly just tired. They did thyroid test and ultrasound. Blood test came back normal. Cool. just needed to get an ultrasound. A few days later I had a really bad random panic attack. I haven't had one in years, like 10 years. I went to ER because it had been over an hr and I still couldn't come down. Told them something is wrong with me I just feel so terrible and they said no, it's anxiety here's some Ativan.
I did a follow up with my doctor and he said same thing, "get some counseling and I will prescribe you anxiety medication, this is just anxiety". My ultrasound results came back today... I have multiple nodules on both Thyroid lobes and they are both enlarged. It could be anything really, but I feel so frustrated no one believed that something was wrong with me!
Thyroid does cause anxiety, so Doctor wasn't wrong, but both tried to write me off like I was just imagining my symptoms.
Thanks for listening. Don't let Doctor's make you feel bad for asking for help
