Nutrition & thyroid: For someone who's been thin all his/her life, thank your luck stars for a "fast metabolism". If you're concerned about your inability to gain weight, get a referral to & speak w/nutritionist to make sure you're eating enough calories & protein. Also check w/your family doc to make sure your thyroid is normal as is your gut & immune system. Unexplained weight loss is another animal completely.
