Hello all, I will tell you right now, before my Major Depression hit me. I had a DULL STARE, SLOW HEART BEAT, HOARSE VOICE, EYEBROWS ARE THIN OR GONE ON OUTER EDGES, MUSCLE ACHES PARTICULARLY IN MY SHOULDERS AND BEHIND MY NECK, LOW BODY TEMPERATURE, I HAD DEPRESSION TO A DEGREE, ANXIETY, FOOD INTOLERANCES, DIMINISHED LIBIDO then WHAMO !!! It brought me down to the vegatative SUICIDAL episode I had, Major Insomnia etc. My point is. I had a TON of the actual Hypo Thyroid symptoms, there is to have PLUS when It hit me I went into overdrive pouning heart etc. But at that time my TSH cameback 5.9 I believe it was even higher. I just told my current Doctor how I think Serzone/Nefazodone has MASKED my REAL underlying problem. He said "NO" Serzone would not make you fell better and make your TSH 2.2 .... I mean poeple please help me, can it mask Hypo Thyroidism ? I mean if it can, I want Synthroid. My Dad is Hypo Thyroid, my Mom was, My Grandmother is, my Dad's Aunt is, it is in the family. I just know that there is an underlying thing here, and the Serzone/Nefazodone is correcting it to a degree and I would bet my bottom dollar that is why I fell withdrawl no matter how low or slow I go I start to stare out in space. DEPRESSION can be related to Under Active Thyroid, I believe anxiety can also. My Previous Doctor suspected I was Hypo Thyroid, but was baffled why the TSH kept coming back fine. People PLEASE help determine if I may me suffering on controversial Serzone/Nefazodone when all I need is Synthroid.
