Question Thyroid with TOS

So, how many of us have thyroid problems with TOS?

I was just dx'ed hypothyroid yesterday.....and the little reading I have done mentions that if you have something like carpal tunnel it will get worse when your thyroid misbehaves. SO, since neurological TOS is more like Super carpal tunnel, i can only imagine.

I always thought being tired was a function of chronic pain....and I am really hoping adjusting and adding some thyroid support will help me get over the hump! I just started taking levothyroxin today...so we'll see what happens.

I don't know yet if I have the hashimotos antibodies, (doc didn't talk long on the phone) but I'll get my own copies of the blood tests on monday.

I know there are a few out there, and at least in one case (you know who you are!!) it is quite a big deal.

Just wondering if there are others?

Johanna
