Anyone have experience with hypothyroidism?

Hay

In my views all information is being appreciated . I have had throat discomfort on and off my whole life and thought it was OSA once diagnosed. I am showing most of the symptoms of hypothyroidism including low pressure and low heart rate.

Hi Cuda,
Good luck with the diagnosis. Not that you want another disease...but sometimes it's better knowing rather then having a bunch of mystery symptoms.

And to Mars or related to Mars' post. Graves disease is HYPER-thyroidism and not HYPO. Points for having the correct body organ though.

No Problem Mars,
I know your intention was good...as it always is.

An interesting thing about Grave's disease (hyper-thyroidism) is that to treat it, it is often converted to hypo-thyroidism (so to speak) though radiation, chemical or surgical ablation of the gland and then treated with replacement hormone therapy just like hypo-thyroidism.
