Hello. I have depression for many years and tried many antidepressant and none worked. My other symptoms are: poor circulation, pale skin, upper eyelid swelling, hands swelling, always cold, cold hands and feet (cold face skin), cold intolerance, dark circles under eyers, acne, seborrhea, anxiety, many symptoms of sympathetic nervous system overactivity - fast pulse, vasoconstriction, nervousness, tension, poor concentration and memory.
I use Ray Peat diet for many months and there is not much improvement.
Blood test results:
TSH: 4
I do not remember what was the FT4 and FT3 but it was in range
sodium: 138 (135-150)
potassium: 3,51 (3,60-5,10)
cortisol: 16 (upper limit 17-19, not sure at what time it was made)
ACTH: 42 (limit 46)
DHEA: 13,4 (upper limit 12,50)
17-oh progesterone: 2,42 (upper limit 2,30)
androstenedione: 3,09 (upper limit 3,10)
SHBG: 25 (13,5-71,40)
parathormon: 23 (15-68)
Do you think it's worth a try thyroid hormone for my symptoms?
