777543 tn?1259360517 m new to this forum, but I really need to talk to someone. Does anyone struggle with depression and feelings of wanting to jump out of your skin? I was diagnosed with depression long before I became pregnant and have been ok for a while, but lately I just feel so insecure and down. I hate that I'm gaining weight. I know that it's normal, but before I got pregnant, I lost 120 lbs. and now seeing the scale go up is making me think I'm going backward. I hate how I look.

Avatar n tn My thyroid was tested in late July. This was my last test. My TSH is 3.88, my total T4 is 8.2 (on a 4.5-12.5 scale), my free T4 is 3.0 on a 1.4-3.8 scale, and my T3 uptake is apparently high (36 on a 22-35 % reference range). Please tell me what this means and what I should do. Why was my T3 and T4 normal for so long before, even when my TSH was lightly high, and now my T3 is high? Should I reduce my dose of Armour or quit it all together?
Avatar f tn Symptoms vary from person to person but low energy, irritability, and self-isolation are all signs of depression. Some therapists do offer sliding scale fees.

Avatar f tn Anyone else weigh themselves at home and get a completely different number when you step on the scale at the doctors office.. Ahh it bothers me. Past pregnancys I have gained 40lbs and I'm trying to control how much I gain this time around. pre pregnancy I was 150 (according to MY scale). I weigh myself on a daily basis and have been at 152 for awhile (ill be 15 weeks tomorrow). Well I went to the doctors and stepped on their digital scale and got 158.
Avatar n tn 125mcg to 150mcg is a fairly large jump, and should be enough to bring your hormones back into line. It should take about six weeks. With Unithroid, there is no dose between 125mcg and 150mcg, so if you find 150mcg is too much, you may have to get creative. For example, a scrip for 50mcg and a scrip for 88mcg taken together would give you 138mcg per day. Just a thought if the 150mcg turns out to be a little much. You need to get your TSH down to between 1.0 and 2.

Response to medication, defined as a 50-percent reduction in symptoms, can vary in psychiatric patients. Some may not respond at all.
Avatar f tn Depression is not about feeling sad and lonely all the time and wanting empathy. I never want anyone to feel sorry for me. I only want patience, not put downs. Depression is not about giving up and wanting to die. Depression is about losing the will to live and trying to figure out why?
Avatar f tn I have started celexa and trileptal for depression, but the side effects re aupposed to be weight loss. I took an at home test and it was negative but its a bit early to take the test.
Avatar n tn Usually, you will see the log (1.7) and the neumerical (50) on the test results. One example of a test that has a sensitivity of 50 is Hepatitis C Viral RNA, Quantative Real-Time PCR.
Avatar n tn I see many here that lab test out normal or sub clinical - as you but antibodies are above the scale causing issues for the patient. You may want to look into those tests with your doctor.
Avatar f tn I have found a great Doctor who is working to get my Free T-4 in normal range but I am still concerned about persistant symptoms such as fatique, weight gain, constipation, hair loss, depression, hoarseness and now a persistent headache banding around the back of my head x 7 days. Is there anything else I should be doing to help myself. I took Tonolin CLA x 2 months but it seemed it only caused flabby fat around my abdomen even though the numbers on the scale stayed the same.

Avatar f tn if so then i suppose it is more of a bipolar disorder than just depression. depression alone doesnt really make you stressed unless there are other factors. why noit try asking your doctor about medications?
