March, 2007 - I went to see my ob/gyn for my annual exam. After the exam was finished, I visited with my doctor and expressed concern about the difficulty I was having losing weight. He suggested that I meet with a dietician to ensure that I was eating the right foods, eating the right amount, and exercising. I met with the dietician and was assured that everything I had been doing was correct. She suggested that we meet weekly to monitor my progress and I did.
April, 2007 - After several weeks of not seeing any weight loss, the dietician suggested that I see an endocrinologist. I made my appointment and visited with the endocrinologist. He had me drink some water as he felt my throat and he said that he suspected that the right lobe of my thyroid was enlarged and suggested further testing.
The diagnosis really didn't affect me that day. I had more important things on my mind. My mom's health was very precarious so I focused all my time and energy on her.
More to come.......
