Hypothyroidism

  • Hi there ... again!

    Realising I am amstarting two new threads in the space of as many minutes but thought I'd get it all off my chest in one go!
    I am a 21yr old with severe hypothyroidism (which has attributed to my weight problem but I can't really blame my condition as I am taking medication) and would love to hear from anyone who is also suffering with this. I am currently on a combination of thyroxine and liothyronine, does anyone know of a better treatment? How has it affected your weight loss?
