Gemi,
Just curious...do you know you have a thyroid problem and your dr thinks eye problem might be related, or are you going to endo to see if you have a thyroid prob? Is yours over or under active?
I have an underactive thyroid. I actually have thought that some of my eye problems are related to it, have heard that autoimmune thyroid prob, Hashimoto's disease, can cause some problems. My eye dr never said anything about it, but usually eye problems go along with Grave's disease.

I'm sorry. I don't know how I missed your post.
The endo I saw (after tests and time, labs back and forth) am hyperthyroid , intermittant graves (because the labs are abnormal, then normal and around and around I go). At first, the tsh was suppressed (nervous, lost wt, temp fluctuations, palps etc) took tapazole first for 6 months then another 6 months (1yr total). Some time passed after I was off that until last year. I started having symptoms, was confused about them because they seemed to be combination hyper & hypo. The lab work showed consistent elevated lab values once with the t4 and the rest the t3 was higher. The last lab that I've seen the tsh was 2.5 which for me when that is normal is 1.5 and the t3 was higher. At the same time had ovarian cysts that lurked and a laporoscopy showing endometriosis (laser, lupron shots). It seems when the thyroid hormones are acting up, so does my palpabral lid along with the estrogen. When it rains, it pours...

My palpabral on the left upper lid gets injected (swollen). Capillarys are red, pain behind the eyes. Last IOP was 16left/17 right. Took restasis then the IOP was 15/16. I'm due to go to the eye doctor again, just rec'd the card in the mail. Another appointment, another doctor...
