> I am only depressed, not bipolar, but I had the same symtpms as you do, and a normal blood test for hypothyroid. I started cytomel and it really helped. You should try it.
Hi,
What is cytomel? Aren't there different meds depending on which T is out of whack, i.e. T3 T4? I'm completely ignorant in this department.Also, if your blood test was normal and you had the symptoms, who gave you the idea to start taking thyroid meds? In other words, how did it dawn on you that hypothyroid was probably what it is for you?
Are you also taking antidepressants? Do you think it "comorbid" as in it's not JUST the hypothryoid that's caused you to be depressed, but depression as well(that is treated with ADs)?
thanks.
Katia
