Hi Leslie, I was glad you brought this up. I have been googling PN and hypothyroid and have found that there is indeed a connection. If you are chronically hypo, you can develop PN. Resolving PN once it has started, even after correcting any thyroid imbalance, will be a long road.

I have been undergoing tons of tests as you know, and my hypo is out of control. I basically have no thyroid and they have increased me to 3-400 mcgs (every other day for each strength). BUT I want to see an endo after reading all the info on the web. My Aunt wants my absorbtion tested, she thinks there is something wrong.

When I was with the neuro he basically stated, there is no connection between hypothyroid and PN....soooooo....I won't be seeing him again since he doesn't seem to have time to keep up with the current research.

Don't you just wish there really was a Dr. House?
