Cuz they'll rule one or two blood tests out and that's just not right. Like PCOS and other issues, you need more than one or two tests to diagnose. Hang in there!  |
well... I have a lump between my shoulders at the base of my spine...but sense blood labs at my school cost 10 dollars, they checked me for pretty much everything, and my testosterone was high, my glucose was high, my bad cholesterol was low and my good cholesterol was a little to low, my triglycerides were a little low, and my white blood cell count was slightly elevated but I also have killer pollen allergies and the dr agreed that WAS probably it. oh and estrogen was high... other then that I'm normal everywhere, they were even very complimentary on my liver results.
huzzah healthy liver (until i beat it up with metformin anyways).
I think some of my exhaustion is heat, It's a nightmare in Houston right now, and if i go out in it my exhaustion levels spike. also i have terrible problems with insomnia and that doesn't help any.
