Then look for other: If your thyroid hormone function is normal, look for another cause of your symptoms with your doctor. Feel better!

Wrong labs: You probably have not gotten the correct labs, or you have adrenal fatigue. Check free T3 and reverse t3. Ft3 should be in upper range and rt3 in lower range. If your ratio is off, you may need Armour Thyroid or t3, and synthroid (thyroxine) would be the wrong med for you. Tsh is a poor way to diagnose hypothyroidism.

Many other causes: Every symptom of low thyroid hormone can be found in many other conditions-even when one has "all the symptoms." lack of exercise, depression, sleep apnea are just a few examples.
