Hi everyone:
I´m a 37 years old thin guy, Diagnosed on 2010 with subcliniical hypothyroidism, since then (and before) i´ve been low energy, low libido, but apparently enough functional to work and for medics my symptoms wasnt ´cause thyroid issues, in that epoch i went two times to psychologist that didnt help on nothing. Between 2010 and 2016 again i repeated some teste and subclnical still was there and TSH was high than tests on 2010, and again you are normal and sent me to psychiatrist. I declined to try endos again and i was resigned to live in this way, until 2016 that everything went worst i became to wake up early (3:30-4:00 am) feeling tired the rest of day, my hair became to fall, my eyebrows too, my skin became soooo dry, eye bags all the time, and libido and erections went to zero.........My best friend told my about pay for a private endo, so i did, again the tests and medic told me about begin a therapeutic test to see if i could have a response with levo. First month with 50 mcg was the best month in years much energy, much motivation, and the i suffered a crash, i went worst than when i began, since then i´ve never felt again in that way, i´m still with eyebags, there´s medium energy days and low energy days, still wake up early at 5 am not so tired like before, but enough to impact my days, skin still doesnt improve at all, eyebrows and hair stopped its falling but doesnt return.
I was searching other opinions and endos told me that now i´m hyper, that all is in my head, that i´m hypocondriac, that i´m inventing the symptoms, that like i´m a thin guy and i believe that i have hypothyroidism the symptoms appears on a kind of 'placebo'. So i dont know what to think, and that i must not go beyond 50 mcg, i just wanna and opinion an know what do you think on your experience, here are all my tests(by the way test days i dont take the pill)
