Hi Janice,

I'm a newbie too and trying to get my head round it all! I was shocked to be told I had an under active thyroid, thought it may have been early menopause!

Nice to meet you too

Hi, Andrea, you are blessed to have been told you have an underactive thyroid.   So many are told it is early menopause when in fact they have an underactive thyroid!
