Hi Anisa - I have read the posts you noted now and I am trying to digest them. I feel like there are tooo many things wrong with me (or all the symptoms point in the same direction and I just don't know enough to figure it out). I can just imagine the look on my doctor's face if I brought all this in to her and told her I needed to be checked for x, y, and z.

I am going to go by the advice here and order the tests from Scanlabs. I am also taking it easy, easy with the Thyreoid although I am feeling more and more 'foggy' as time passes. I will just have to wait as I slowly increase the dose.

Gunnda - Thank you for your comments. I have been low carb for a long time. If I even look at a piece of bread I gain 2 kilos. But at least low carb keeps me from gaining.

I have started my son on B5 which is something that 'may' help slow down the symptoms of his disease. While researching it (it is recommended for people with his disease) I read that B5 is great for well, just about everything. Should I start trying to supplement with these kinds of things to 'help' myself out or am I just making things worse (or hiding symptoms)?

You guys are great! My brain is exploding from all the great information - I wish my doctor would read this site! :-)
