If you are dealing with depression and hypothyroid, how many believe they are dependent on the other? I was depressed long before I was diagnosed as hypo but it seemed my depression improved somewhat when my blood levels were ok. Here's the dilemma - do I go get my thyroid tested again or do I go to adjust (restart) my depression meds?

Another little question: My bbt (body basal temp) has dropped about a full degree in the last two months and now is consistently lower than it was. (I temp for contraceptive purposes so I take my temp everyday) Does that mean that my thyroid might be off again? The blood tests are so darn expensive.
