After reading about people losing weight on another thread I thought I wouldask for help.
I too have been stuggling with weight and have tried every diet going. However, about last November after getting blood checked for a chest infection, I was asked to get it checked again in 6 months as my thyroid levels were out. The doctor also said that a chest infection could have affected the results. Anyway, I have been going back and fore getting blood tests only to be told come back in a month - last time 3 months. I seem to be on the edge of having an underactive thyroid but doctor doesn't want to put me on thyroxine at the moment.
Meanwhile I have been getting more and more tired and have put on a stone in the last couple of months (underactive thyroid lowers your metabolism). I've been reading stuff on the internet and have been taking kelp tablets. They have helped a wee bit but still feeling very lethargic ( as opposed to wanting to sleep all day)
Has anybody had experience or know of anyone who has to help me from not gaining weight or not feeling so tired?
