Yesterday I saw an endocrinologist because there is something going on with my thyroid. To quote the good doctor, as he felt my thyroid from the front - "your right side is a big enlarged". Then he felt my thyroid from the back and that was even better - "Wow! Your left side is HUGE!" Fortunately, you can't tell by looking at me (: So he sent me down to the lab where they drew six - yes, I counted them all - vials of blood so they could check for all sorts of things that could be causing my thyroid to be enlarged. It may be something as simple as a sodium or Vitamin D deficiency or it could be as serious as cancer (doubtful, but they have to give you the worse case scenario). I'm having a scan done tomorrow afternoon and hopefully some time around St. Patty's day, we'll have an idea of what's happening! Thanks for praying - don't stop!
