Hi everyone
I have just been looking up the symptons to under active thyroid and I seem to have them all, but these are all symptons of depression also apart from heavy and prolonged periods from which I also suffer.
On previous blood tests which were taken years ago nothing showed up but I have heard that most cases if they are mild to moderate do not show up.
What I am wondering is if anyone else has looked this up and think that there could be something wrong with their thyroid and if anyone has bought any thyroxine or would you know if your throid was underactive.
My symptoms are
taking ages to get going in the morning and feeling cold.
skin on my face feels coarse.
feel the cold and always have cold feet
feel like I have had no sleep when I wake - depression I know
heavy periods
hoarse voice
but I do feel better mid - late afternoon.
Was just wondering if anyone had investigated this and what the outcome was.
many thanks
