hi. in addition to hypothyroidism there's a possibility that you are having OSAHS obstructive sleep apnea hypopnoea syndrome . the people with this problem usually have snoring with disturbed sleep which they won't be able to recognize and excessive sleep during daytime. you need to see a pulmonologist and get sleep studies done to rule out this problem.
