What Causes Fatigue, Difficulty In Waking, Weight Gain And Hair Fall?

I have been struggling with the following symptoms for the past 2 years: Fatigue, Sleepiness, Progressive difficulty waking in the morning, Weight gain, Difficulty losing weight, Hair falling out, Brittle nails, Increasingly severe urticaria (have had daily/weekly for 14 years), Forgetfulness, Difficulty concentrating/focusing, Increasingly painful periods, Shorter menstrual cycles, Frequent diarrhea/constipation, Stomach cramping (1st meal/drink of the day), Gas/burping and gut noise after eating, and Rough skin. I am a bariatric patient and had gastric sleeve surgery 4 years ago. I lost 90 lbs but have gained back almost 40 in the last two years. I suspect something hormonal or thyroid-related is going on. TSH is always low (approx 0.1) for last 3 years, but T3 ad T4 are normal. My quality of life is terrible coping with all of these symptoms and I can t seem to get any answers from doctors. I need help figuring out what is going on in my body! Please help!

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

think the problem you are having may be related to hypothyroidism. Check your thyroid hormone levels doing TSH,T3,T4 levels again. Consult an endocrinologist.Also check your total blood count and iron levels.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka
