Guest guest Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 I have wondered the same thing myself. Hypothyroidism runs in my family too. Nobody has ever tested me though. I'll add that to my list of tests to bug my primary doc about! > > One other thing, , do you have hypothyroidism? I have definitely seen a pattern where many women who have PCOS also have hypothyroidism. > > I'm being treated for hypothyroidism, and it has really helped my muscular pain levels (and PN). Since I went up on a higher dose of med, I've also been able to cut my estrogen patch (almost in half). I think my thyroid has played a direct role in the mess with my hormones. > > Just thought I'd mention this... > Take Care, > Chelle > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This PN you are talking about... what is it? I need to find some relief from the pain I am experiencing from this. Any info you can share is appreciated. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
