Re: Please help! doctor says everything is normal

Post your test results here, with reference ranges. You should get TSH,

FREE T3 and FREE T4 tests. Look in the archives for articles on PCOS, also

see http://www.drlam.com. Try OTC progesterone cream from HFS.

Definately you need thyroid meds, based on symptoms.

Hello everyone, my name is a and I hope you can help me out. I

just had a thyroid panel tests done and my doc says everything is

normal. I however can not believe that. I am 23 years old and have

felt " sick " for about 4 years now. I a condition called Polycistic

Ovariam Syndrome and I am pretty sure there is something wrong with

my thyroid.

I am always extremely tired, I am very overweight and can't seem to

stop gaining. I am so tired that I feel like I haven't slept in a

very long time. I am also very irritable and quite deppressed. I

can't seem to remember things, my memory is getting worse it seems.

My skin is very dry and I have rashes in my hands. My basal

temperatures are very low, usually between 96.4 and 96.9. I can't

seem to concentrate and like I said before my memory is very bad.

I am only 23 years old and I am married and have a beautiful baby

girl. I am so young yet my sex drive is gone. I have bad carpal

tunnel syndrome. I suffere migranes and almost daily headaches. I

have bad edema in my legs and feet and no matter how much water I

drink it doesn't go away. I am so tired that I can't even take her to

a park to play, I just feel so tired.. I also have gallstones and I

know that could also contribute a lot to my problems... I have other

problems but I am sure you get the picture.

Thank you so much for reading and please give me some advise. I will

go today and pick up a copy of the lab results to see what the actual

numbers are.

What other tests should I have done? and wat do you think of my

symptoms?

Thanks in advance!
