Thyroid problems

    I have been diagnosed with an underactovr thyroid about 4 years ago when I was 16. Since then having received blood tests every few months my dosage of eltroxin kept changing. The last time I had blood tests was December where the doctor told me my thyroid was perfect now and the dosage I was on suited me. But 6 months on and I'm afraid I'm feeling the symptoms of my underactive thyroid once again :( I'm feeling very lazy and sluggish, could sleep all day if I had the chance. Not feeling very happy in myself and feeling the cold again a lot more. I don't know if these are linked to my thyroid again or if these are just by chance. I can't really afford as a student to be getting blood tests done so I would really want to be sure that my thyroid is acting up again if I had to pay for more doctors visits for it, as the last time I went she gave me a prescription for a year.. Any advice??

    Start eating paleo and try to eliminate any wheat in your diet.
    Do some research on paleo meal pkans and the thyroid,you will be pleasantly surprised.

    Op, you've been linked to the thread in LTI. I'm going to close this thread as this forum is not for giving medical advice or discussing personal situations.
