Shazzy2, It sounds as though you may be undermedicated. If you post your recent thyroid results and ranges in a new question, members will advise whether you are optimally medicated.

My understanding is that Wilson's Syndrome describes hypothyroidism when bloods are euthyroid. If this is the case, adequate thyroid hormone should relieve symptoms. Even optimally medicated, some hypothyroid patients find that temperature doesn't recover having been low for years.

Wilson's Syndrome isn't a recognised medical condition by most allopathic doctors. Email louise.warvill@thyroiduk.org.uk for a list of member recommended endos. You can also post a question asking for recommendations for functional doctors or naturopaths who recognise Wilson's Syndrome.
