Vitamins and minerals I am using

It seems as if I am having pituitary deficiency connected to my thyroid. I have all the symptoms of Hypo-pituirarism my thyroid level are pointing towards pituitary problem. I have read and have been told by my doctor this could very well may be true since I did suffer from a TBI.

* I have already went down the mental health route Psychiatrist and Psychologist.

* Neurologist route.

* Gynecologist.

*Did the primary doctor route. He is encouraging me to see an Endocrinologist.

I have my appointment for one on July 26th... ( I was referred to this Endocrine practice by a friend whose husband suffered from Cushing's Disease he had surgery and has been doing well ever since. All of the doctors are female and all come with a very high rating with helping this problem. )....

Since also quitting YAZ my 3 months ago my body has been thrown off. In which I thought would happen.

Let me add I feel like shit. My quality of life has sucked since 3 months after being hit. No energy, exhaustion, I can sleep forever, jump from a size 2 to a size 6. ( Yeah obviously I have gained weight jump from a size 2 to a size 6 is a lot for me. You don't have to be obese to have hypothyroid.. Its a result from a TBI or Traumatic Brain Injury it makes sense ) Cold feet, Really Dry Skin and Hair, low heart rate and low blood pressure. horrible mood depressive mood swings, and memory

I am taking a Vitamin Cocktail. It helps not a cure all but its helping as time goes on...

Centrum Woman's Multi-Vitamin
Vitamin D3 2000 IU a day
Vitamin B12 5000 mcg's a day
( This is my morning vitamin ritual )

Then later on in the day.

Liquid Kelp 150 mcg...


Right now being that I have been to everyone it seems like to find out what is physically wrong with me. Apparently the only one that believes me is my Primary Doctor and my orthopedic doctor.

I have to take all these vitamins to have some energy and for minor relief of stress, poor memory issues, and relieve some mood swings.

This is my body and I only get one. I know my body and I haven't healed to full capacity. Some doctor has to run all the necessary tests to get to the answer. I have believe the whole time it was something endocrine no one listened.

I want every test run on me. I have to work and finish school. Also, be able to do the little things such as clean, cook, and be happy.

I refuse to live like this forever. I am so unhappy like this...
