I went to the doctor 2 1/2 years ago with extreme fatigue, weight gain, and several other symptoms including what I thought to be psoriasis on my scalp and face. He told me I was just stressed with college and to eat right and excersise. I basically began starving myself and running three times a day. Even with all that, I had not lost much of the 40 pounds I had gained. I stopeed having eriods and when I did have one it only lasted a day or so. He finally tested me for a list of test including mono and the TSH test. My TSH was off the charts he said but then prescibed an RX of .25. I have been back several times due to the inability to get my energy back, loose weight, etc. I actually have changed doctors three times. Each doctor has raised my levothyroxine intake and now I am taking one .75 in the morning and a half of a .75 by late afternoon. I get tiny bruises all over my body, I'm always tired, still overweight, terrible skin issues, frequent urination,dry brittle hair, and the list goes on. I am only 25. I should not have all of this at my age. My mother is hyper and a size zero, I sometimes wish I had hers. I was just so excited to see this forum on here. I need to stop throwing my little pitty party and get educated. Does anyone have any advice and can I get pregnant in the future?
