I am 14 weeks pregnant. At my last doctor
visit he said my thyroid was a bit
enlarged and ordered bloodwork. I just
talked to my doctor and he said my thyroid
level is a bit high (hyperthyroid). He
does not want to treat me for fear that I
will switch to hypothyroidism. He just
told me to be aware of my heart rate (i.E.
Palpatations) my doc seems really laid
back about it but i'm wondering if he is
just acting cool about it so I won't
stress out. I have read really bad things
about it. Should I be worried? Is there
any self help measures I can take?
