Good idea to change doc's and get a second opinion. As previously said, even with low normal hormone references it can still mean you're functioning abnormally. References are an averaged range not specific to you.

Fingers crossed for ya lovely lass. Get well soon.

Thyroid bit low but not enough to treat, i would go back and explain just how tired etc you are and ask to trial thyroid meds. I had to fight my doc to get treatment for hypothyroidism two blood tests 6 months apart before i finally got some treatment. Does not solve all of the tiredness issues straight away but at least i can now make it through lunch time without needing a nap!

I second this if things aren't improving then worth pestering re thyroid again. My mum had low normals at GP for long time but had classic symptoms. Eventually got referral to endocrinologist who dx hypothyroidism even with 'normal' blood tests. She has been on meds for a while now & feeling much better. I think mild depression can also manifest with general 'meh' & lack of energy so still worth considering

Keep your chin up, lovely lass. Don't be a stranger and let us know how you are doing.

Enjoy some time off and put your feet up.

Xxx

Chronic fatigue syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome (also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis, or ME) is a severe and disabling fatigue that goes on for at least 4 months. There may be other symptoms, such as muscle or joint pain.

How are you feeling today? Sal the 1st

Snoring/apnoea at night where you're not getting a full and proper rest?

Hey, you're both younger than me! Shall we say the tyre treads a bit worn, that's all?!

Sal the 1st

Are you sure you're metabolising the iron supplements?

Have you been licking that old paint off the walls? Lead and/or arsenic supplementing, you bad lass

Carbon monoxide? Test the boiler?

thyroid 'bit on the low side but not enough to treat' 'bit anaemic' I'm on iron tablets for that. I have done my own bg a few times (I have a diabetic cat so we have a glucometer) and has always been WNL.

Perhaps I am just past my sell by?

Hiya Sal the 1st

Presume your doc has tested all hormone functions? Standard blood tests don't test thyroid function...
