I have had symptoms of an underactive thyroid for almost 2 years now (tiredness, rapid weight gain, feeling cold and then hot, numb toes and arms etc) is it harmful if left untreated? Also is there any pills I can buy over the counter (in the UK) that can help regulate my thyroid? Thanks

My symptoms are:
-Weight gain (quite big amount)
-Hair loss
-Dry skin
-Itchy eyes
-Fainting (maybe not associated)
-Constipation
-Itchy throat
-Breathing trouble (could be related to my asthma)
Is it that? or could it be something else?

I’ve read all the literature and some other questions, but I want to know YOUR symptoms of an over or underactive thyroid. What do you experience? I think mine is low, but I haven’t had it checked yet. What do you say to the doctor if it is a low normal and they don’t think you need meds, but you know it just ain’t workin’ for you? "Give me some freakin’ drugs!"?
Holy crap! That low temperature thing is totally me! Who knew?!

I have a VERY LOW underactive thyroid (according to my doctor it is terribly low).

I have really bad symptoms like everything with me is wrong, my hair falls out like no tomorrow, just chunks at a time, and its like dead straw hair. my muscles are super weak, if I write two sentences my arms will start to ache, I recently gained 30 pounds (when I was eating less and exercising more, my doctor says its cause my metabolism is so slow from my underactive thyroid thats why I am gaining weight), I get really bad shortness in breathe, pale, poor memory, swollen hands and feet, Hoarseness or deepening of the voice, brittle thin nails, bad immune system, heavy periods, joint pain, EVERYTHING! it causes soo many problems, ecspecially with the horsey throat and the dry hair falling out soo much, weight gain, swollen fingers and muscle soreness there my main big problems..
they are truly ruining my life, I am starting my meds next week, are my symptoms going to gradually go away (I really hope so) or am I going to have them all my life. Pleaseee people help me and answer me my mind is baffled with these questions, I need a clear answers.

Thank you soo much, GOD BLESS!

My docotor is testing my blood for thyroid problems, and I would like to know what treatments they may suggest if I do have any problems. Also, what are the possible issues with my thyroid that they may be checking for? Signs and symptoms? Not sure if this makes a difference, but I am a 22 yr old female - two children/c-section.

I want to know if anybody here was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and didnt use recreational drugs at parties but developed the disease naturally as I recently got some bad news….Basically I found out a friend who also went to parties has developed multiple sclerosis and I forgot I had hypothyroidism for a while but now I am feeling so bad……

Pls could u give me some info….I dont do parties drugs now I really regret and am so afraid for my future as I already have hypothyroidism and I know that all drugs affect the nervous system which can cause disease…

Urghhhh!!!! :(
