Hi,
I hoping that you all may be able to give me some advice. In 2015 I followed a paleo diet, lost 4 stone,started T3 and for the first time in years I felt great.
However over the last year and a half I've put on about a stone, I no longer feel good. My T3 has been put up from 20mcg a day to 40mcg a day taken half in the morning and half in the afternoon. I was on 50/75mcg T4 and I'm now on 25mcg. But I'm still getting shakes in my hands and feeling like I'm shaky all over. My arms and legs ache a lot,I feel dizzy. I've recently developed a reaction to my hair colour that leaves me with an itchy head for weeks. I'm wondering if it psoriasis. I have underactive thyroid and Hashimotos autoimmune disease. Years ago I was diagnosed with PCOS too. My eyes water loads and go very blurry when tired and I'm always tired. If I take the dogs out for a little while I feel exhausted after. I'm also under a lot of stress as one of my children is severely depressed at the moment.
I have a Doctors appointment booked for tomorrow and a specialist appointments in May. My private health insurance is refusing to pay for this now so I'm going to try and get my GP to do the blood tests but what should I ask for please?
Any help would be appreciated thank you
