underactive thyroid
you go to the doctors because you are not right or well
the doctor orders some tests including tests on your thyroid and the results came back normal
and yet you are still not well
the tests allow for variation to a very wide degree and what is normal for you is not normal for me
the tests do not test for every thyroid problem and that is where the rub is year in year out
and yet it was the thyroid all along
because of misdiagnosis the problem goes on for years and years and because of that other problems appear like sleep apnea again very serious and again very often misdiagnosed, other problems compound your problems, it is problem upon problem

I have the same issue. I have had underactive thyroid for years and years. My doctor says none of my symptoms are realated to my thyroid but I have a list off a website the AMA put up about thyroid diseases and I have almost all the symptoms for Hoshimoto Disease. I have: dry scaly skin, weight issues, lack of libido, lack of energy, insomnia, joint pain, hair falling out, dry mouth and throat, trouble swallowing headaches, muscle aches and the that is just to name a few. I showed him the list. He said I need to see a psychiatrist. It is all in my head. I am trying to find a new doctor but with no insurance it is hard.
Just know you are not the only one!!
