This man really needed an interviewer who "got it." "Hypothyroidism...the thyroid being out of whack..."No. Hypothyroidism is characterized by an underactive thyroid. HyPER thyroidism is overactive. Both are "out of whack.""So Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a symptom of hypothyroidism."No. CFS is CFS, while chronic fatigue often accompanies hypothyroidism.Finally...The doctor's DIAGNOSIS is "antidepressants"?At least the Doc was smart, but really. This was painful to listen to.

Any idea what might cause hypothyroidism? Also, is hypothyroidism more common in some countries than in others and if so, why?

I'm going to be tested in a week. I've had every problem in the book regarding thyroid symptoms, and my mom has this problem. I'd love to buy his book.

no idodine is not - as you have found out...make sure you are getting ENOUGH thyroxine - [sadly the TSH scale is not enough really for testing] you'll find your hair slowly grows back...my hair loss grew back slightly wavy after being straight beforedon't take advice from those who do not understand this deeply

I think I have this. I'm tired all the time, even after getting 10 hrs of sleep at night.Finding this is definitely a huge help in getting me on the right track..

Thats exactly what happened to me. I was depressed and was treated for it, but I had a underlying problem.. Hashimotos Thyroiditus. Its only been recently diagnosed. So hopefully we'll find the right dose soon enough. Its tough going. The fatigue is a killer!! Thanks for this video.

Please tell me how to get the hair growth back. Because where it fell out now it isn't even growing back. And I'm loosing my eyebrow hair, etc. Also, I noticed with Hashimoto's that when I take Iodine I fell even worse can you do a video to tell why it makes you feel worse when you have Hashimoto's because eveyone also said iodine is good for hypothyriod, I don't understand!!!
