Have you had thyroid tested? Need testing for ANTIBODIES as well as TSH. TSH should be .3 – 3 but would not matter if antibodies are present. Indicative of Hashimoto’s Autoimmune Thyroiditis…main cause of HypO & is worse. WARNING: Doctors seem not to want to find thyroid disease. May have to go to more than one before you get the right tests, interpretation, and treatment. Best wishes.

God bless
untreated Hashimoto's Autoimmune Thyroiditis (no ins)
Frequent thirst and hunger, and frequent urination, sound like symptoms of type 2 diabetes.
Not sure about the others.
Wait and see what your doctor says when the blood tests come back.
