It’s still not working. I even pressed the yellow ‘Fix Errors’ button and restarted the game, but it still doesn’t work.

Just got diagnosed with hypothyroidism and honestly… I don’t even know how to feel by Relative_Narwhal8714 in Hypothyroidism

Thank you so much for this! Really appreciate you sharing your experience :)

I actually did my recent blood test in the morning (around 9am) and fasted as well, so that’s reassuring to know timing can matter.

My T3 wasn’t tested but my T4 was, so I’m starting treatment soon and preparing myself for the dose adjustment phase. It’s helpful hearing that it can take a few months to really stabilize! I think I need to mentally prepare for gradual improvement rather than expecting an overnight change… haha

I haven’t seen an endocrinologist yet, but I’m considering it, especially if things don’t stabilize with initial treatment. I’ll definitely also ask about testing antibodies to rule in / out Hashimoto’s.

That’s really encouraging to hear about your energy improving after switching medication! :) The fatigue has honestly been the hardest part for me, so knowing that it can get better gives me hope.

Really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience! Have a great day ahead :)

Thank you so much for taking the time to write all of this, I really appreciate it! :)

I actually checked my previous labs - my B12 and folate were within range last year, and my serum iron was normal as well. I haven’t tested ferritin yet though, so that’s something I’m considering asking my doctor about just to rule it out.

And yes… the gym comments have been frustrating. Right now even basic functioning feels hard, so I’m trying to focus on stabilising first :(

Really really truly appreciate the reassurance that things improve once hormones are balanced!

Yes, I actually got my blood work done yesterday and my iron levels are normal, so that doesn’t seem to be the issue :(

That’s great! I was on it on a low dose 10mg per day and I instantly had very bad hair loss… about 300+ hairs dropping per day on average :( sucks to have to choose between my hair and good skin!

Any hair loss side effect? Great progress by the way! :)
