Well, I have Hashimoto's Disease. I knew from the antibodies that it was positive,
but endocrinologist has not offered any treatment. Maybe because my TSH is
normal. Too much levoxyl for a normal level could give me rapid heart beat, etc.
My ultrasound was fine, no nodules that would indicate thryoid cancer.
Still itching some nights even with hydroxyzine 3x daily. It still breaks through
even though I am on only 200mg. of Gleevec. urticaria is a parallel disease
along with hasimoto, so I'm at a loss. Oncologist wants me to switch to
Sprycel since I am allergic to Gleevec now, but I do not want to deal with
another problem. I have heart problems and don't need Sprycel to mess
with my heart.
Thanks for listening. Any advice is welcome.
