Please help me get rid of this crazy symptoms. I had another test last week my levels are still in normal range of 2.46 the standard range is 0.27 - 4.20 uIU/mL.

I also did a general check up if there is something wrong with my blood or any other thing, but all came up normal.

My doctors believe I have no thyroid issues, but they are also not sure what is wrong with me? I am way so much tired of the symptoms I have. I am suffering from hot flashes, mild leg pain which radiates from knees to my toes, the same thing happens with my hands, heart palpitations which lasts only for a sec, fatigue which feels like i am fainting, also pain exactly in my thyroid gland and the pain spreads to my one ear.

I highly doubt the problem is with my thyroid. I had postpartum thyroiditis with my first baby. Now that my 2nd baby is 8 months. My symptoms got crazy. I had all the thyroid anti body, TSH, T3,T4 tests all are normal.

The hyper medications doesn't work for me too.

I am so much confused what is wrong with me? I have been seeing many doctors around, but it seems one doc is passing me the other and nothing changes. I am so much tired of going to the doctors.

I kindly request the people whom have some info or have the same problem of mine to share his or her experience with me, I would be heartily happy. I am looking forward of your help. I feel so much hopeless and way much frustrated with my crazy symptoms.

Thank u so much and I love you all.

If they are only going by your TSH result, the will say you have no problem. The fact that you had postpartum thyroiditis with your first baby and now problems after your second, I would guess it is your thyroid gland playing up.You will find out that GPs know very little of clinical symptoms and diagnose only on the TSH level. Also ask for a thyroid antibody test.

Your symptoms do sound clinical symptoms of hypo. These are a couple of links:-

thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/diagno...

thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/testin... (GPs don't recognise this)

thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/testin...

Your GP probably wont do many of these and you may have to have them privately. Details on Thyroiduk.org

thyroiduk.org.uk/tuk/testin...

A link re pregnancy (not first 2 questions) but the others may be helpful.

Thank u so much, I appreciate it.

I will take a look at the links u sent me.

God bless

As we so often write here, a GP's view of what is normal/ok when considering blood results doesn't necessarily equate to feeling well or being symptom-free.

If you post the results of your TSH, T3, T4 and antibodies tests that you have already had done, and their ranges, folk here will be able to comment on them for you.
