I saw my local GI on Monday. My thyroid levels, which had been improving, are back to indicating the far hyper end of hyperthyroidism. I'm not sure yet what they're going to do about that. (I think the Mayo endocrinologist is going to decide if I need anti-thyroid medication.) The GI said that he thinks that I have a systemic autoimmune disease, but he is unsure what it is and that we may need to just wait. He ordered a test for malabsorption and also wants me to return to the GI at the Mayo Clinic.
I have gained some weight (though still not up to 100 lbs), but I'm finding these answers less than satisfying. Though I realize, there may not be clear answers at this time.
