Well for someone who isn't trying to be rude, you are sure doing a good job of it. I would hate to see a post where rudeness was your intention!

Just because my TSH comes back normal doesn't mean that my thyroid is fine. There is a panel of tests that should be done but aren't. So I haven't had all the tests. Several years ago I had the complete panel done and the doctor said that my thyroid was messed up etc. and then she left the city and then I left that Province so I couldn't follow up on everything. My Dad had just dies and my thryoid was the least of my problems.

The fact that I lactated after being on a med for only a week could signal a problem with my thryoid and in fact I am having a blood test done to see why my prolactin level is but I have to wait 6-8 weeks. My body temperature in lower than normal and I am always cold. My skin is dry. I would be losing my hair (I started to last year) except I take I high doses of selenium and zinc. I am exhausted all the time. When I first suffered from depression I wasn't the "sleepy depressive". I was the "I can't sleep at all" type.

I would expect a little more empathy from someone who has also had mental illness. I am perfectly willing to accept that I have depression. But there is other stuff going on in my body. It's my body and I know it better than anyone.

> If you had a test and your thyroid is normal, why would you have another test! That's ridiculous. Just accept the fact that it's not your thyroid..it's depression. I had all the tests in the book the past two months and everything is normal and I accept this. Don't blame your depression on "hypothyroidism" when you now know your thyroid is fine. just my advice! not trying to be rude!
