    • Close Hypothyroidism

      I had so many of the symptoms for years but never really figured it out. I started bleeding non-stop so my gyn did all sorts of tests. I was diagnosed in 2004. I have been up and down and back and forth. I am trying to better understand this all. The symptoms that I am currently dealing with are: extreme sweating, irregular periods, and mild fatigue. I am actually lucky and haven't gained any extra weight...actually lost 35 lbs last year. Still have 75 lbs to lose though.

      Synthroid Somewhat Helpful
      No side effects-Thank God!
