Did you have a complete exam? I know that some people get a lot more energy with B12 injections. Psychiatrists will give thyroid supplements to people with "normal" thyroid blood tests to take in combination with antidepressants. When given throid supplements alone however without antidepressants, patients with normal thyroid blood levels generally don't get much relief from depression although they may feel a little more energy.
