Just Wondering If Anyone Has Hyper Or Hypothyroidism Or Been Tested
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I found out i have hypothyroid and when looking into natural or functional medical clinics that specialise in fibro they apparently always test the thyroid as it can be one of the underlying problems but you need the free t3 and free t4 and something else tested to get accurate results often the doc only does a basic test that doesn't always show up.

Yes. I have had hypothyroidism since my early 20's. My fibro showed up after a fall and my thyroid problem was diagnosed around the same time.

My Fibro and hypothyroidism were also diagnosed at the same time and happened when I relived the trauma of losing my mother to cancer in my early teens watching a best friend suffer and die, same age as my mother. I have also fallen several times at
Work on ice and think that triggered worse pain symptoms !

Yes I fell in 1988 and sprained my neck and upper back. This is what triggered fibro with me.

Just something Iv been thinking about,
Did any of you have an accident of any kind, a fall, bang on the head or Anything prior to suffering from fibromyalgia? I would be interested to know xx
