> Scatterbrained, have you had your thyroid levels checked - all of them? There are some very selective and sensitive tests for several types of thyroid levels to be checked (more than just what you would get tested for in just a regular physical). Also if you are female and are using an oral contraceptive, please be aware some of these can really effect different women very badly. If you are a male, have you had your testosterone levels checked? Hormones can and do play a huge role in cognition, emotions and behavior as well as many, many other biological things so I urge you to consider having your thyroid levels tested if you haven't already. I am concerned about you.
> Best, SearchlightThank you for your kind and concerned words. I have had my thryroid levels checked but I don't know if I've had all of them checked.Do you know what the specific tests are exactly? I don't think I've ever had my testosterone level checked.If you or anybody else have any other suggestions please don't hessitate to respond. I need as much infomation as possible.Thanks again
