28yo male here.
A month back, I paid for a full thyroid panel that came back normal. In general, I feel in good health. My weight is decent, energy is decent, and mood is good. However, my temps are still low, and I exhibit these two unusual symptoms:
1. I can't pinch/lift the skin on my upper arm or shoulders. It's like thick rubber that won't lift and I can't get between my fingers. I'm curious whether whatever this is continues across my body, as my musculature is quite undefined. Come to think of it, I can't pinch skin anywhere.
2. I have two thick grooves across my neck, where I imagine to be above and below the thyroid.
I remember reading that these two things are a sign of hypothyroidism.
In the context of my "normal" thyroid panel, can anyone shed light on what these symptoms mean or what they could tell me about the current state of my health?
