I'm really quite worried about my 25 yr old daughter and she has given permission for me to post her results. She has had really quite bad fatigue for 10 years and will just drop asleep any time of the day as she is so tired. She doesn't have an overly stressful job but does have some digestion issues and knows that beef/yeast/milk are not her friends! She does have a moon face. Used to be constipated and possibly still is. Hair and nails good.
We did a private thyroid test about 9 months ago and it all seemed within range except the magnesium and so the GP dismissed this and also said it wasn't sleep apnoea and she didnt score highly enough for a referral but still has problems. Can we discount hypothyroidism as a cause of the fatigue? I have Pendred's hypothyroidism (recessive condition) and am not aware that the single copy of the faulty gene she must have could cause hypothyroidism issues unless her dad has a different gene that interacts with pendred's gene.
FT4 16.8 (12-22) 48%
FT3 4.8 (3.1-6.8) 46%
TSH 0.54 (0.27-4.2)
Magnesium 1.07 (0.7-1)
Cortisol 236 (166-507)
Your thoughts would be welcome. Regards, Bikebabe.
