A member asked:

I am often very sleepy, my left chest hurts especially when taking a deep breath. i lose a bit of hair but not drastically. is this hypothyroidism?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: Hypothyroidism can be a cause for fatigue and daytime sleepiness. However there are multiple other factors that could cause this too. Such as sleep apnea.. Chest pain with deep breath may be related to many causes ( pericarditis, chest wall muscle pain, pe, ..Etc..) good history and lab work may clarify the cause.
