i’ve got three months of labs and symptom logs showing a clear pattern. my TSH swings predictably, brain fog lines up with it exactly. made a spreadsheet, brought it to my endocrinologist. she glanced at it and said “that’s interesting but TSH doesn’t work that fast,” then moved on.
didn’t want to adjust testing, didn’t want to discuss timing. here’s what gets me: i’m the one living this. i know which days the fog hits, which days my hands go cold, which days i can think straight. color-coded, logged, real data.
but she’s got the degree so apparently it doesn’t count. i’m not asking her to overhaul my meds. just to work with what i’m actually observing instead of deciding i’m not seeing something real. anyone else dealing with this?
like your doctor just… not interested in your tracking?
