I think you need to find a new endocrinologist. You need to find a doctor who respects you, who will listen to your concerns and continue to search for answers to your health issues. I had to go to an alternative doctor who was willing to try natural thyroid hormone and time released T3. He was willing to think outside the box and he definitely encouraged me to participate in my own treatment by allowing me to tweak my own dosage until I felt right. He empowered me. And he also finally figured out I had another health issue that was making me sick--hyperparathyroidism. Have you been checked for parathyroid issues? You had your entire thyroid removed--were your parathyroid glands harmed during this procedure?
