I know for thyroid it takes 7 different test to find out if your thyroid is out of whack. For hormones it takes one simple blood test. It took me 2 years to finally get my doctor to give me that test. I did tell him that I hoped when his wife goes through the change that she becomes the biggest bitch that ever walked this earth. Then he might begin to listen to his women patients sooner. He gave me the test the day I said that. Ya know ya just have to get their attention. Other than grabbing him by the balls to get him to listen putting a curse on his wife worked.hermomsometimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09813650250966077075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191096654817601753.post-26042192989350138602009-01-03T02:18:00.000-06:002009-01-03T02:18:00.000-06:00OMG!
