hi all,
as it turns out I have both of the above. physically, I'm experiencing weight loss, muscle wastage, muscle weakness, tremor, fatigue, unusual amount of shortness of breath when doing (mild) exercise, always quite hot, lots of sweating, slightly swollen thyroid.
regular amount of thyroid stimulating immunoglodulin is <0.55
mine is 21 IU/L
in terms of thyroid hormones:
tsh regular: 0.5-4.0
mine: <0.02
ft4 regular: 10-20
mine: 62
ft3 regular: 3.5-6.0
mine: >30
my doctor has given me NeoMercazole to deal with it. I'd love your thoughts on NeoMercazole, alternative remedies, and any other thoughts.
Thanks!!
edit: forgot to add that I have been experiencing, very mildly, the widened/buldgy eye thing. it comes and goes, though.
edit again: forgot to add that my period is lighter and slightly less frequent, and my skin has been unusual re. blemishes (which i normally never get)
