How soon until I start to see a change? What should I notice first?

Is it safe for her to exercise (run with me for 20 minutes a day) or should I wait till she has been on the treatment for longer?

I have Hypothyroidism, and I’ve been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately. It’s been going on for a week, and I constantly wake up in the middle of the night.

My parents gave me a pill of Melatonin to take before I go to bed, and I’m hoping it’ll work.

But due to my Hypothyroidism, do I LACK Melatonin? I really want to know so I can cure this lack of sleep.

Ps note: I usually sleep with Yiruma playing, a Korean pianist. His music is calming and helps me sleep, but I feel like that hasn’t been helping.

I just got diagnosed, and in the past I’ve had one blighted ovum, and one miscarriage. Now that I have a "potential" cause, and am now on daily treatment (for the rest of my life) will I be able to concieve? Any stories of hope are MUCH appreciated.

My mom 46 yrs old s suffering from vitiligo for more than a year. she s wheatish in complexion n we live in south india. it started slowly from her ear lobes and lips n scalp and is now becoming big round spots all over her body. i just tremble to see this happening to her. she s taking some ointment n medicines. but i dont see any gr8 changes. her skin s allergic to many substances. she has hypothyroidism too. its genetic in our family. her sister n her mom too have thyroid related diseases. shal i too get vitiligo? isnt thr a cure for vitiligo?

My ob/gyn finally found that my tsh levels were at 22 and diagnosed me with hypothyroidism. i started treatment (synthyroid), but i’m scared. she really didn’t give me any more information and just sent me to a specialist (with whom i can’t get into for 3 months!). will i need surgery? could it be cancer? is this level normal? also, my breasts have been really sore and i read online that tsh levels can spike during the first trimester of pregnancy. could i be prego? my doctor said it is probably unlikely that i ovulated since i have not been treated for hypothyroidism prior to this finding. help!

The first question and some notes (question answered):

1ª) What is the name of the disease that a person feels strong fumigations all over your body?
Several doctors have looked all over my friend did not identify the disease yet.
My friend drank radioactive iodine for his hyperthyroidism, causing hypothyroidism.
He take a hormone (T3 and T4) every day for his own good.
My friend feel very uncomfortable, and constant pain in the skin, a doctor has a remedy, which is amato, relieving a little the fumigations.
Stress and heat (like the sun) intensifies the fumigations even with the amato in the blood.
He also takes 2mg of rivotril (clonazepam) for day. (because of his heart that without it his heart acelerate.)
My friend calls the fumigation of (perfuration of hot needles all over the skin).
My friend lives with me at work and the disease is not contagious.
There is no stain or redness on his skin. Noting that there is no muscle pain.
Only pain in the skin.(only skin pain).
I’ll appreciate and I will be grateful to the person who know the name of the disease.

RESPOSTA;

Soya, the tingling (fumigations) may be due to the hypothyroidism which the treatment has caused, something which physicians are aware of when they treat hyperthyroidism. Perhaps there are other symptoms of low thyroid function. Without enough thyroid hormone, the body becomes tired and run down. Every organ system slows—the brain slows down making it difficult to concentrate, the gut slows down causing constipation, and metabolism slows down causing weight gain. Aggressive treatment of hyperthyroidism may cause an underactive thyroid gland, the resulting effect on the body is the same.

Many of the symptoms of hypothyroidism are very subtle. A lot of physicians overlook the symptoms of fatigue, weight gain and depression and attribute them to other causes. Physicians should check to see if thyroid disease is the cause of these everyday symptoms. Patients who are treated for hypothyroidism can regain full control of their lives and eliminate these symptoms entirely.
Another common cause of hypothyroidism is the use of radioactive iodine. This destruction sometimes results in hypothyroidism. This type of hypothyroidism may be difficult to detect immediately, because there may be just a small amount of thyroid tissue that is not destroyed right away. This small piece of thyroid may produce enough thyroid hormone for the body for a little while. However, if this piece of thyroid burns out or gives up, hypothyroidism may result.

Because this hypothyroidism can occur anywhere from months to years after treatment with radioactive iodine, you may not immediately recognize the subtle symptoms of fatigue, weight gain and difficulty concentrating. Your friend should visit the doctors regularly and have routine thyroid function blood tests. By checking these blood tests once a year, hypothyroidism may be discovered in its earliest stages before symptoms like fatigue and weight gain.
Secondary Hypothyroidism
The symptoms of hypothyroidism are mainly dependent on the amount of decrease in thyroid hormone and duration of time that the decrease has been present. For most patients, the symptoms are mild and can often be confused with other problems.

2ª) The second question is: What is the treatment for this?
My friend still suffering and taking drugs to not feel pain. I feel sad about him.
This pain who he feels isn’t normal. The pain is strong, he said.
He is taking a new drug: Floral ( from plants: it’s a detoxifier and a normalizing body )
But I think isn’t a toxin, because it’s been months that he takes, and won’t get better.
I think it’s a psychological illnesses.
