For many years I had no health insurance. My children were always taken care of and had health insurance through their father's coverage. This was a part of my testimony, Jesus not only took care of me but He also healed me. I think when women go through perimenopause it is not uncommon for their thyroid to be off per say. It was many years ago that I experienced this when I went to my doctor. My thyroid levels were off so I was put on Synthroid medicine to regulate my thyroid. This is what I would do...when I knew I had to go in for blood work and a checkup I would save money to pay cash for the office visit and the lab work in regard to testing my thyroid.
So I move out of state and acquire a new doctor because I ran out of my prescription. Same thing again, save up money for the visit and blood work. This doctor notices that I take such a very low dose of Synthroid that he says that it is so low of a dose it may not really being doing anything for me. He then takes me off of medicine because my levels were fine. The caveat was for me to come back for blood work I think it was in 6 months. Well, I then moved out of state and oddly enough I did not secure a doctor where I live. No one could recommend a doctor to me. So the last blood test I had to check my thyroid was in 2014. I am in GA this past week so I stopped in to see if I could get my medical records and if they could squeeze me in to do blood work to check on my thyroid. I was happy this time since I have medical coverage and it is good coverage also. I am in the office already seen by the Physician Assistant and in an exam room. I get a phone call and I noticed it was a local area code so I answered the phone. You will never guess who was on the phone. My doctor, yep he said I requested a call back from him. I said I am here right now in an exam room just seen by your Physician Assistant. This is incredible bed side manner, do you know he came to the exam room I was in and just talked with me to see how I was doing and for me to catch him up on what was going on in my life. Yes he did, he surely did. I started to give him the brief story of my father dying and us contesting his will and that it stemmed from me becoming born again. He asked me what born again meant. I explained it to him. I think we may have had this conversation a few years ago about being born again. He told me to come and see him anytime I was in town and I needed blood work or a physical. This doctor is genuine and how many doctors do you know that just come in to see how you are doing? That impressed me.
I received a phone call today from the doctors office. My blood work is fine, thyroid and other things they checked also. See, I told you Jesus takes care of me and He is my healer. Is He yours?
TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!
I did learn this throughout the years of having blood drawn for thyroid tests. If they have it, request for them to use the butterfly needle they use on children it is so much easier for me when they draw the blood. I do not like to look at the blood as it is being extracted from me. I also learned to ask when is the proper time to stop holding your hand in the fist position while drawing the blood to eliminate bruising.
