Re: fatigue prior to being hypo?

[Guest guest]

Yes ! Same thing happend to me when diagnosed. I felt extreme

fatigue and thought I couldn't shake a virus or something....went to

my GP and the rest is history.

I think most don't feel symptoms when diagnosed (I asked your

question last year), but my endo explained that my TSH levels could

have been fluctuating and causing me to feel borderline hypo.

My TSH before surgery, but when I felt the worst, was a beautiful

2.48.

Go figure!

Hello!

I must say that the cranky side of my personality would like to run

on over to my ob/gyn and inform him of my thyca diagnosis. I had

fluctuating periods and extreme fatigue a few months prior to my

discovery of a very large thyroid mass. This doctor gave me a

prescription for an antidepressant. I know he's not perfect

(although awfully cute...), but a nice neck feel would have expedited

my diagnosis. I don't think you are alone in your symptoms.

my life, and he told me i was fine .he checked my

thyroid levels and said they were fine , it had to be

stress or a cold.

Hi Amy, Yes, yes, yes. I didn't feel quite right, tired, couldn't seem to get

enough sleep. You will still feel tired until you are regulated on your

medicines. Good Luck, let us know how things work out. Janice
