i had a full thyroidectomy 5 weeks ago, for the first two weeks i felt like a new women, contantly laughig with not a care in the world, i felt great. since then i have slowly begun to feel tired, my legs ache and cant walk far before my back aches, i am currantly on 150ml tyroxin, my specialist tells me it may need to be increased, i had a bllod test but have to wait two weeks before i get results. i am so so tired, depressed, and tearfull. i have gained 11 lbs in weight. i contacted my specialist who is now on holiday. another doctor told me my thyroid function with not cause tiredness???????? i disagree...so at the moment i have to carry on feeling this way............i feel i am being pushed from pillow to post %-)
