Guest guest Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 Kass, Is it possible that Madison is having thyroid problems? Evan went through a period when he was much younger that he had very borderline thyroid function. We only found this out later when I saw the labs--the lab used the adult range for T4 and his old pediatrician didn't catch it. He also tested 1.5 years behind for bone age when he was 7. Here is a list of signs and symptoms of low thyroid-- Hypothyroidism - Signs and Symptoms Weakness 99% Thick tongue 82% Dyspnea 55% Dry skin 97% Facial edema 79% Peripheral edema 55% Coarse skin 97 Coarse hair 76 Hoarseness 52 Lethargy 91 Skin pallor 67 Anorexia 45 Slow speech 91 Memory loss 66 Nervousness 35 Eyelid edema 90 Constipation 61 Menorrhagia 32 Feeling cold 89 Weight gain 59 Palpitations 31 Less sweating 89 Hair loss 57 Deafness 30 Cold skin 83 Lip pallor 57 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
