I have had low thyroid for over ten years and sarcoid for ? years. It was diagnosed in April. Does anyone else have hypothyroid? I am wondering if they are related. I believe everything in your body is related to everything else, of course. I have seen some suggestions that many disorders are caused by inflammation. Certainly sarcoid is. I am wondering if hypothyroid could be also. In that case, it is inflammation that needs to be addressed.

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about the same time I was diagnosed with sarc. I definately think there is a connection since sarc can go everywhere. I think I've also read that sarc cna effect the thyroid. I am on Armour but am still very low. I am seeing an endochronologist in a few months to see if there is anything else to do.
