Dear Michah,

Its a very good post. My sister had a Thyroid problem but the doctors passed her over and didn't do any tests. She was told she was run down and had to take it easy. She also had a goitre. She then went to a third doctor and was finally given proper tests and later had both thyroids removed.

Its easy to be fobbed off, even when you are considered 'normal'. Even more so when you you have a mental illness. Always get a second opinion until you feel satisfied.
