Both of you,thanks.
I failed to remember to tell y'all, I did go to this endocrinologist that my pdoc mentioned when I told him the past docs blew me off.
My pdoc can be helpful at times, suggesting docs he has heard good raves about, I appreciate him doing so also.
Being fortunate to have a good pdoc, I haven't lost faith in pdocs and therapists.
Actually, I haven't lost faith, but was dissapointed, that it took another endocrinologist to finally take me serious and increase my thyroid meds and further tests/ultrasounds,etc. my dissapointment of suffering for about 10yrs with my problem, and it actually took my GP's PA to detect the nodes, that my own docs always missed (that's where I've felt blown off) now leaving me with more faith in PAs vs MD's.
Due to excellent care my mom has had, with the various specialists her health requires, I'm keeping the faith.
I find my veterinarians more on top, than several MD's I've seen. Heck, it takes a lot of expertise to be able to DX and treat animals, for they can't verbalize.
I've been fortunate of always having such terrific vets for my dogs and other former pets.
