My hypothyroid symptoms were confined to my feet and hands.

It is difficult to say, when neuropathy is activated, what is going to happen to each person though.

The lateral femoral cutaneous nerve when compressed can cause numbness in the thighs however. It also has episodes of severe pain accompanied by the numbness.

I am trying to figure out what is more likely and I think the spine problem is more likely than hyperthyroid. I did not think PN is a symptom of hyper. I wasn't sure about the bum either that is a wierd place for numbness to begin if caused by thyroid. Thank you for yor support.
