Can anyone relate to this? I have many of the classic symptoms of hypothyroidism but I don't have low thyroid. I just got the call that my blood test showed normal. I have been living with these awful symptoms for two years now, what do I do now?
I would suggest a cleansing diet. I did this and lost 11 pounds and 16 inches in 9 days. I like the program since it works by giving your body nutrition through protein shakes with digestive enzymes and vitamins and then cleansing out the toxins. We get toxins in our bodies from pesticides, preservatives, water, pollution, medications, food additives etc…. these toxins enter our bodies and get coated with fat. To remove the extra fat, we need to get rid of the toxins through cleansing. The program also has a natural diet pill to help your metabolism and curb cravings. It works and it works fast. I lost 30 pounds in 5 weeks and I feel great. my skin has improved as well from the cleansing. You can get more info at this toll free number 1-877-587-4647. I think cleansing is really important to health and weight loss. give it a try and good luck!
My friend had this problem and she actually went to a thyroid specialist and got the problem fixed!! I recommend looking one up!!
hypothyroidism mimics obesity and depression.those things need to be taken care of.improve ur lifestyle.
It means that your thyroid is not always functioning properly, and that it is eventually not going to be functioning. Continue to go back to your doctor every 3-6 months an request further blood tests
I had the symptoms also but my test was normal,turns out I have poly-cystic ovarian syndrome(pcos) ask your Dr to refer you to a Gynecologist just to be checked.
they should recheck it again, and again. i had the same thing happen, and had a test that came back normal, then one that was abnormal, then another abnormal, then again a normal one. so….sometimes, things are out of whack one day and not another.
Some of the symptoms of hypothyroidism are puffiness, fatigue, hair loss, water retention (hands and feet), memory loss, fibromyalgia.
Without getting too clinical, if your TSH is normal, I would suggest having your hormone levels checked. Fluctuations hormones also manifest similar symptoms. Other endocrine problems should be ruled out, as well. a battery of tests including lymphoma is also performed routinely nowadays, so I suggest having that done.
I am not sure your age group, but it is highly likely that your condition is benign. sometimes, depression, stress, anxiety may cause some of the above smptoms.
Good luck and stay healthy.
You need to see an endocrinologist and be checked for Cushing's and PCOS – two diseases that can mimic the symptoms of hypothyroidism.
You also need to get the exact levels of your TSH. Some offices have different ranges for normal, and different people feel different at different ranges – for example, my mom had a TSH of 80 and felt only mildly lethargic, whereas some people might have a TSH of 4 and feel like they're going to die. You need to obtain those test results and get tested several more times.
