Hi Ade,

2. After taking out my thyroid gland in 2006, my doctor did not put me

on the thyroid replacement medicine until I experienced very painful

lower back muscle complications; it was so bad that I could not walk

for more than a few yards at a time.

Your doctor sounds like a cruel monster, who ought to have known better. It

sounds as if you had no information/advice from your doc about either hyperT or

hypoT. Glad you are on meds now and not still suffering. You will learn a lot

from the group, and the website I found most helpful to me when first diagnosed

hypo, was Shomon's site at www.Ask.com. is hypo herself, and she has

written books on both thyroid conditions. Get educated in your condition,

because the doc's wont tell you much that is going to be useful to you, if they

are the type that ignore obvious symptoms that scream so loud, what they are.

God Bless, and Good Health,

Val
