Anyone had thyroid problems?

Question

I'm having a lot of throats problems. It hurts and it's swollen. My bp has been jumping up to 135/105 and I'm losing a lot of hair everyday. I'm super hormonal and exhausted all the time. Just worried. Going to the doctor tomorrow.

Answer

I have hypothyroidism and yes it sounds like thyroid issues to me. if you look in the mirror and swallow and the part in your neck that moves is swollen or hurting then that is your thyroid. More symptoms are temperature intolerance, headaches, muscle cramps, dark circles under your eyes like you have been punched, dry skin, flakey nails, increased appetite, depression, weight gain, dizziness, feeling like you're in a haze, etc. I've had thyroid issues brought in by Hashimotos since I was 11. Ive been both hyper and hypo. Good luck! I hope you find some relief. :) If and when you start taking the meds take them on an empty stomach  with lots of water and wait to eat at least an hour after taking them. I also suggest to get some electrolytes in your system. Before and after you start taking the meds. It can help a lot with muscle cramps.
