Lol into basel temperature. They say it has alot to do with always feeling cold. Alternatively you could have reynauds phenomenon like I do. As for feeling tired it indicates your hormones aren't right. Chronic fatigue explained my tiredness in conjunction with being under medicated as my thyroid had switched. When it switches with hashis the doctor says I just have to ride it out. .thank god it only lasted 2 weeks

I get random aches and pains when I am either undermedicated or have low Vitamin D. Low Vitamin D is definitely associated with random aches and pains, and my doctor says everyone in the UK is low on Vitamin D at this time of year.

My Doctor said the same,and the tests will let us know for sure,so I think she is doing all she can for me.
