Sunshine, something I learned about and continuously try to do is not worry about things that may not even happen 'cause it usually doesn't. I know those of us with anxiety do this quite a bit. It's not easy to do, but it's not impossible either. Look at it this way. If there's something wrong, you might find the answer to your fertility questions. Whatever is going on doesn't have to be life threatening, you know!

Something else I learned was that even if "the numbers" are within the "normal" range, it doesn't mean it's normal for you. My thyroid was enlarged for a short time a while back and all that was wrong was that my thyroid had gotten a bit sluggish. A tiny pill took care of it. When I went in to see the doctor, the nurse told me I looked like I had the mumps! At 30 something?? So I guess my thyroid was "full," too.

Hope my experience helps you some.
