YES!!! I was finally diagnosed with hypothyroid 6 weeks ago after having all the classic symptoms for years. I have been on natural desiccated thyroid hormone for 6 weeks and I feel like a new person. My mood is improved and my anxiety is much lower and I have stopped needing to take Xanax. Next step is eliminating antidepressants. I feel confident that I can do it based on how I feel now.

Please visit this site and read, read, read. Stop the Thyroid Madnessā„¢ - Hypothyroidism and thyroid mistreatment

First thing to understand is that the TSH test alone is not adequate enough to evaluate your thyroid function. They must also test your free T3 and free T4 levels. If your Dr doesn't do these additional tests find one who does.

Best wishes
Thanks for this!
