A member asked:

What is myxedema? if one got thyroid hormone test results as normal, could they still have myxedema if symptoms are prominent?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Myxedema is due to low thyroid function. If your thyroid tests are normal you do not have myxedema. You need to discuss with your physician other options
