THYROID

aka62792

I have been feeling poorly for a few months. EXTREME STRESS due to a series of events, Deaths, Breast Cancer, Transplant. I am in the Medical Business, so I know what extreme Stress can do to you. As time went on, I thought there was more going on. I asked my Doc to run a Thyroid Level test. It came back a few days ago, it is almost zero, I am sleeping 19 hours a day, cannot function, concentrate, no energy, confused, weight gain etc. since the Thyroid runs metabolism, I now understand, why I was having so many problems. I just started taking Synthroid, I am continuing on here, since I have never dieted. I hate the way I look. Although my Doctor has told me, I may have a harder time losing weight, I am not giving up. If anyone has had this problem and got well, please contact me. I feel so miserable, it's hard to do anything.
