Smirk hypothyroid?......

Hi all, i have seen a few hypothyroid threads on here and just wanted to run this past u guys before i see my general doctor (who is fairly unsympathetic and prob thinks im a hypercondriact!).

i have noticed the last 8+ months:

hair thinning at the front of my scalps and at my temples (worse on my tos side)

a scaley dry patch at the front of my scalp which try as i may, i cannot get rid of!.

tiring easily after regular daily activities

my heart often jumps all over the place - feels like skipping a beat - if i breath in deeply it usually stops


Does anyone think that this may be linked to a thyroid prob (which i see many Tos suffers have on here.....)

Or perhaps the hair (the loss and the scaly patch!) prob is unrelated to thyroid and could be some thing like a dermatitis!

thanks
