Is there a chance I have under active thyroid?

Hey guys,

So i went to the docs a few months back as I had nodule on my thyroid. My thyroid levels came back normal so I was sent for a ultra sound and biopsy. By the time the scan came around the lump was almost gone. The doctor said it was fluid and drained it. I have to go back for a second scan. My problem is i have so many under active symptoms:-

Tired, extremely itchy skin, depression, constipation, change in period, dry hair.

Could the test be wrong?

If you post your thyroid results on here someone will be able to help you. Normal is often wrong from doctors. :-)

If doctor will not do the above tests the Thyroid Check plus 10 is a good test from blue horizon medicals £79. All of the above except Vit D and cholesterol. I live in Coventry and the labs refuse to test FT4 & FT3 even if doctor requests it.
