Hypothyroidism
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone have a hypothyroid problem and fibromyalgia? I was tested and my tsh levels are high meaning some sort of problem.
Any info would be great!

Yeah, I've been on thyroid meds for years, before I was diagnosed for Fybro.

I have both. Its hard to figure out which is worse and which is causing the current problem. I switch to a functional medicine Doctor because my previous Doctor would not address my rising TSH levels. I am on nature thryoid which has no fillers. I have also found I am allergic to drug fillers. I had been on Synthroid for years. Once I got off the Synthriod my pain levels went down. I tried to go back on and my pain levels went up.

I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's before having any Fibromyalgia symptoms. From what I've read, if you get an autoimmune disease, you are more likely to get others. So unfortunately, you probably have both :( It's hard enough with one. Hopefully your doctors can figure things out soon!
