  • New to this forum/ hypo w/goiter

    I was recently diagnosed with a goiter and had an uptake and u/s done. They found a nodule which was biopsied and benign.
    I started taking synthroid my number are starting to come up slightly my thsh was .18 back in Sept. now it is .25 my t3 and t4 are fine.
    I stay so darn tired though it drives me crazy. I can't get an appt. to see my Endo. till the end of January.
    Anyone else stay tired as crap?

    actually if your tsh increased your thyroid levels should have been worse not the same as TSH and thyroid hormone production are inversely related. TSH is thyroid stimulating hormone and it goes down when thyroid hormone levels increase. since you are still symptomatic talk with your doc about increasing your meds slightly.
