Isn't there a connection between your immune system & hypothyroidism? when my tsh was wild i stayed sick a lot w/colds, tsh good no colds

Coincidence: Hi. There is no scientific basis for that correlation. It is coincidence, not cause and effect. I'm glad: 1) you're euthyroid, and 2) you're not getting colds! Peace & good luck!
