I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism several years ago and prescribed 100 mcg, which I have been on for several years. My TSH falls within range but I'm experiencing many hypo symptoms. The dry, itchy, burning skin is by far the worse but others, such as concentration and loss of libido are present as well.View Thread
I have blood work annually. At one time I had an endocrinologist but it seemed almost cursory to him. The only real analysis came from a young female doctor just out of medical school who said the TSH analysis wasn't enough for a complete diagnosis, that the T3 and T4 relationships were more important. Unfortunately, she moved on. So, from what you say, you have more blood work and adjustments. How do you avoid a rubber band effect where you constantly adjusting but never balancing. Or, can this thing really be balanced at all?View Thread
