I had my annual appointment yesterday and my doctor decided to run tests for thyroid issues and iron deficiency based on my new hair loss and weight loss. I should have results by Thursday.
With any luck, I just need to sit down and eat better foods more often and take a supplement.
Re: f/u to Old Post - Hair Loss
I just had both of those checked last week for weight loss and extreme exhaustion. My tests came back normal, which is good, but now I don't know what's going on. My dr called to schedule a followup appt, but I haven't called her back yet. I guess I should do that.
Anyways, I hope you get some answers. It sucks not knowing what's going on with your body. Best of luck! Keep us updated!
Good luck! I have a thyroid condition and my body is all kinds of effed up when I'm not regulated.
This!! Mine got really bad post partum, still trying to regulate it! But when I was 19 I went to the doctor because I had bald patches on my head, that's how we found out about my thyroid condition.
hope you get some answers. iron deficiency is no joke! a friend of mine went through it recently and it was really rough but she's coming out of it.
good luck and keep us updated!
Thanks, everyone. I'm very glad to have an awesome doctor who listened to my concerns and had me in the lab before the end of the day.
