By the time I finally went to the doc I was convinced I must have low thyroid. I thought she was nuts for checking all these other things (iron, vit d, cell counts, etc.) Doctors are pretty smart... I sure like mine. She listens to me, but she follows her own hunches, too. (she was talking about anemia at my first appointment for the fatigue, and I was brushing her off!)

Anything your doc wants to check, have it checked! You never know what might be up!

(btw, all my thyroid indicators are absolutely beautiful, even though I have celiac disease which is a big contributor to thyroid issues. Niiiiice!)
