www.FatLossQuickie.com Are you allowing your under-active thyroid to hold you back from losing belly fat? During today’s live Fat Loss Quickie Show I share my thoughts on how you can overcome this challenge.
My doctor thinks I might have an underactive thyroid, because he was looking at my neck for tonsillitis and noticed my thyroid gland looking odd i guess!! I have a massive fear of getting blood taken, I’ve had it done before, I simply cannot see how I can do it again.
Does anyone know of any other way a person can be diagnosed with underactive thyroid without having blood taken?
many thanks
Around January time I took a blood test, it came back showing that I had an underactive thyroid, I was just so happy because for about a year I have not been feeling myself, I’ve always been a strong person but I became week, my hair is always dead, I was gaining weight but I didn’t know why (gained over 15 pounds in a few months), I went on the internet and google under active thyroid symptoms and I had them all..
I was so excited I could be feeling back to my old self IF I was put on the pills for it, BUT my doctor said to me, i don’t want to start you on the pills because I want to be positive you have it, He send me for another blood test (around March it came back Negative!!!… I was not happy at all with that, and I did not start my pills.. a month later (in April) I requested another blood test, again, came back Negative……
I am just so sick of this, I KNOW I have an under active thyroid, I am not myself, I am so weak, and everything. I know for the past longer than a year I’ve been not myself, my life feels at stand still, believe it or not I’ve not been out the house for about a year from feeling so ill, everyday is a struggle, a thyroid can affect nearly everything in your body. I know once I go on the pills (If I do) I will feel sooooo much better, but he won’t start me because the last two tests came back negative, but one also came back positive and if I didn’t have it how did it show up.
What can I do to make him change his mind, any other tests I can take. What can I say to him to understand how I feel.
Thank you for anyone who answers, I really do appreciate it.
Sorry if the title is a bit confusing.
After doing some research on both of the thyroid issues, I have a question.
My father was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid - he gained a ton of weight and had the ucky swelling in his neck. His doctor warned him that I have a high chance of getting it, as it is hereditary and common in women.
I don’t know if/when I will get it, as I don’t know when it often occurs.
HOWEVER, I feel like I have been developing symptoms of an overactive thyroid - I am 120lbs and have been for at least 8 years, but lately my weight has been dropping a bit and then rising again even though I am always always hungry and I eat like a pig (seriously I’m not kidding). I’ve also developed some pretty severe anxiety in which I have a hard time breathing (I get anxiety attacks over everything), plus I am always tired and sore in my muscles - I find a am going to the bathroom more.
Now, I don’t meet a lot of the requirements of an overactive thryoid, but my question is - even though I am more likely to get an underactive thyroid genetically - is it still likely for me to have an overactive thyroid developed from a disruptive pituitary gland or thyroid gland?
My question, as clearly as I can state it, is BECAUSE my father had a thryoid malfunction (or pituitary gland I’m not sure) I am also prone to such a malfunction - but as it is hereditary, am I more prone to get the same thryoid issue he has, or can I develop the opposite of his (which would be an overactive thyroid) from the same malfunctioning genetic?
I was told you need a perscription to keep an underactive/overactive thryoid under control.
Nowhere did I state anything about diabetes? I am not dizzy - many people in my family are diabetic and I know what the symptoms are … thanks anyway? :S
mrhealthy.info or http Did you know that thyroid health is a concern for nearly 11 million Americans? And, a healthy thyroid supports healthy weight and cholesterol?
I’m a 17 year old girl, and I think I might have an underactive thyroid, because I have a lot of the symptoms like: weight gain/trouble losing weight, feeling tired/weak/fatigued all the time, depression, my hair is very coase, but is falling out, very heavy/irregular periods, brittle nails, pale/yellowish skin, problems with concentration, and low voice. The doctor said my thyroid gland is not swollen. Also, my mom is borderline being underactive, and it is common in our family. So, I’m going to get bloodwork. But does anyone think I could have underactive thyroid, or have any other information?? Thanks
My husband was recently diagnosed with an underactive thyroid which explains all his symptoms of lethargy, depression, sleep walking etc. Can he get discharged from the air force for this? The doc says it’s not bad enough "yet" to put him on meds, but obviously it’s bad if it’s causing him all these symptoms. What do you think?
If it helps our doctor is an idiot. She donwplays everything. He cut himself and is SUPER depressed. It is obviously bad enough for meds.

I have a bit thyroid, had an ultra sound about 8 years ago & was told it was fine, just large. For the past year, I’ve noticed I’m very tired, just can’t get it together, I’ve gained 15 pounds in 2 months without changing my diet at all, I don’t eat the fats, or yucky stuff, I kept a diary of all foods going in & the caloric amounts, only 1000 - 1200 a day. My arms & legs ache all the time, I have horrible muscle cramps in the legs, my face is puffy, my stomache is always bloated no matter what I eat, I cut out diet soda, cut out starches. My nails used to be very long, they are now brittle, my hair was long, it is now short, it breaks so easy. I had my thyroid tested last year and was told it was on the low end of normal. Could this be an underactive thyroid? If it is, once corrected will the weight come off? It’s very upsetting to see weight gain without the benefit of pigging out! Could this affect blood sugar?
