for those who have a thyroid problem? what are your symptoms?!


Question: For those who have a thyroid problem? what are your symptoms?
what are your symptoms? can you tell me how you feel on average when u have a thyroid problem? oh and how did u find out you have a thyroid problem?

Answers:

There are 2 main focused types - Hyper, and Hypo. I have hypothyroidism, which is basically a deficiency of the thyroid hormone, where are Hyperthyroidism may be an over-production causing opposite symptoms

As for mine-

I found out because I noticed I was fatigued a lot, down, depressed, and I had anxiety attacks and a lot of fears, I also had odd weight gain and I hated the cold. to I went to the psychologist who recommended I visit the doctor. I got a couple blood tests done, and they tell by how low your thyroid count is. Mine was very VERY low. (I also have a large family history of Hypo and hyperthyroidism)

Sometimes if you leave it too long without getting checked out, your thyroid gland can swell and this can cause a number of dangers - Including heart failure.

It is VERY easy to treat! My treatment is one little hormone pill a day. That's it! Simple as that- and all my symptoms have gone away. I feel better, I look better, and I enjoy life as much as I should.

Hope I helped!
