I used to be like that, hypothyroidism is a removed.

Since being on the meds I now have the energy to do two separate things in a single day.

How did you find out? Also, "removed" lol

I don’t know why the word was removed, wasn’t that bad 😆

I was just constantly tired and stressed, eventually the stress was causing heart palpitations so went to the doctor and they did a blood test.

Before the meds it was like being an old phone with a dying battery. Only ever charged up to 60% no matter how much sleep, and ran out of power in a few hours.

lemmy.ml has a pretty strict filter on any word that could be considered a slur regardless of context.

What did the blood test check for? I wonder if a general blood test would catch that.

Ask your doctor to check your TSH and T3/T4 levels. That's just like a regular blood test.

I think it was a general blood test, they weren’t looking for hypothyroidism specifically.
