Had A Had A Problem For The Past 4 Years

Had a had a problem for the past 4 years with what started as a skin disorder.. dermatologist could not figure out what I had after my initial infection went away. Went to internal medicine and did have a low thyroid reading. This was in 2013. Went to an endocrinologist and he checked to me for Graves disease. He took the TSI , t4 and a TSH and results came back that the levels were going back up. He said it could have possibly been a virus but unsure. Went to homeopathic took saliva and urine sample and determined that it was a systemic issue in the endocrine system. Took supplement for a year and some minimal results. Began having worse joint pains and tightening of calf muscles with pain, chronic headaches, continued chronic IBS with constipation issues. Had previously ruled out rheumatology issues, no gout, and no staph infection. Recently found a neuropath in June of this summer handcent hair samples for forensic hair analysis. Results came back that I was vitamin deficient and my calcium was high but all other vitamins or below normal range. And magnesium, potassium, iron, and one other were dangerously low. Been taking supplements and much joint pain has gone away but skin issues still looming and still some joint pain and sores on skin gastrointestinal issues. Found recently some information about hypoparathyroidism and the secondary criteria I had vitamin D deficiency for the past 2-3 years and gastrointestinal issues. Could I possibly have this disorder and what do I do to find out? Can this problem affect your biggest organ which is your skin?
