Personality disorder and thyroid issues.

Hi guys, I have posted before because I thought that I may have bipolar but after seeing my phyciatrist today for the first time she believes that I actually have a mixed personality disorder (Borderline/anxious). It is such a relief that after 20 years of being on and off meds and all my ups and downs I can actually put my finger on it and say 'yes, this is what it is!' She also noticed that I had have a goitre in my neck which is a swelling of the thyroid gland. I've had blood tests before but nothing was detected, and a biopsy taken from nodules within the thyroid gland which were not cancerous, however this Dr is convinced that I have an underactive thyroid which needs fixing asap! It would make sense as I'm constantly tired, no energy, overweight, PCOS etc...with all of this also contributing to my low mood. I was wondering if anyone here has been diagnosed with a personality disorder before and if anyone has had thyroid issues that have been undetected...like I'm guessing mine has been for all this time.

Thanks in advance guys xxx
