Hi,
Is there anyone out there like me?
28yr old male, 70kg, 6ft. Never been able to create fat on my body (through eating many different ways, including junk food lifestyle). Always been hungry/ craving sort of person, so I was eating a lot of extra meals per day my whole life..
Where does the food go? People answer say I have a high metabolism (blessed).
Yet I am cold (low basal, AND poor circulation = numb extremities), have poor skin (oily, dandruff, acne), low energy. Positive is my Pulse is good (80bpm+)
The 'excellent' genetics of not accumulating fat, means I am exempt from having thyroid problems (according to most).
TSH is about 1.6, Free T3 is upper range and T4 is lower range.
Cholesterol is high, testosterone is out of range high, SHBG is out of range high (endocrinologist said she has seen this in skinny people before, but is otherwise baffled), free test is below optimal for my age.
Primarily I am wondering if there is any other 'skinny peaters' who can correlate any of the same condition, and have any experience/ success to share?
Otherwise I am alone, have you any ideas?
I haven't tried T3 yet (will order some mexican cynomel).
Am I possibly just cold due to having low fat? Is thyroid not for me?
Cheers
