Is this normal?
I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism on the first week of February 2026 after I went for routine checkup at my gp. My heartrate was at 180 and she kept getting nervous so I went to the hospital, spending around 24 hrs there. A few weeks ago I was told by the endocrinologist p.a that I had transitioned to hypothyroid after I told her that I was feeling weaker and had pain even for easy things like washing my hair. She didnt like my heartrate being at 62 with bloodpressure at 110/72. I keep getting told by my family and co workers my eyes look buggy, glassy, spaced out, etc. I'm now getting leg spasms in the morning. I'm on 10 mg of Methelmazole once a day and 20 mg if Propanalol that I can either take once a day or can split into taking 10mg twice a day which is what i've decided to do.
However I havent had any kind of examination since the hospital from the physician's assistant nor my gp. I was told while at the hospital they were going to do an ultrasound of my thyroid on my first endocrinologist appointment and it never happened. Everytime I ask the gp about my eyes I get told my thyroid just has to get regulated. The P.A doesnt mention it at all. I come into the appointment, she asks me questions, I ask a few questions, she goes to talk to the endocrinologist. Then I get told I need bloodwork (this time I have to do it twice, once that day and once before my next appointment) and then I make my next appointment.
Is that normal for an endocrinologist appointment? Is it better for me to go see someone for my eyes or should I wait until my thyroid is regulated?
