First get thyroid: under control. Then, the ones that worked were taken off the market due to serious side effects. BUT, if the administered thyroid hormones are working normal to increased (need calorie counting to tell) then changes in intake and exercise are important. http://www.amazon.com/dp/0692496157/ details this and specific methods for behavior changes from the addiction lit. (humorously!).

Check thyroid: Ensure that your thyroid function is optimized as that could be a quick fix to some excess edema and water weight as well as lethargy and fatigue. If you are still experiencing depressed mood, consult a psychiatrist to further understand your actual symptoms and make medication recommendations specific to you.
