Some times, chilly feeling (hypo), even in summer months, other times hot and cold alternate(hyper). Hoarse voice, memory problem, and worsening of allergies (hypos). And yet, too much appetite, hyperactive, and nerviouseness (hypers). I didn't keep track of the symptoms to how often one present verses the other, and whcih one is more predominant. I confused the doctors, may be the labs too. Hopefully, the thyroid antibody gives me different result. > > Sardar I agree with . In fact, your alternation between hypo and hyper symptoms sounds a lot like me. I was confused for a long time about what was going on. So far I am only diagnosed as hypoadrenal, but one of my doctors thinks I am also hypothyroid and I have just had blood tests to find out. I think it is common to have both problems. It would be a good idea to have your adrenal function tested. If you are hypoadrenal, you need to treat that first. Otherwise, thyroid meds may cause problems. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
