A member asked:
Can an underactive thyroid cause repeated chest and sinus infections and to generally feel run down?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypothyroid: Low thyroid function can definitely cause a 'run down' feeling but, it ought not cause sinus and chest infections. You may have a separate issue since chronic sinusistis can cause both lung problems and long-standing fatigue. Check with your pcp to see what the situation with both your thyroid and sinonasal health are.
