A member asked:
What are the signs of a child of four years old having a sluggish thyroid. he had blood tests that revealed he had a sluggish thyroid, he is thin and very active, the reason they did the blood work, is that they think he has ocd.

Huh?: "thin and active" does not sound like a sluggish thyroid. Quite the opposite, hyperthyroidism. Also, there is no blood test for obsessive compulsive disorder (ocd). He is too young to diagnose with a psychological disorder, if that is what you mean. Maybe a medical problem, but not what you are indicating.
