6 years ago atthe agef 22 i started to develope symptoms which were constant tiredness, hair lose, weight gain and achne. i didn't feel well in my self but could not put my finger on what might be wrong. as time has past i suffered several miscarriages dispite have fallen pregnant 3 times in the past with no problems. then i started getting palpitations and nervousness. then i developed a terrible memory and restlessness. of recent i struggle to get to sleep and when i do i cant wake up. i have no sex drive at all and am constantly irritable and uneasy. i have been to my doctor several times ove the years and 4 years agowas tested for my thyroid. the first test was done on the 3rd day of my cycle and came back with problems with my T3. i was tested again exactly 2 weeks after the first and the test came back fine. my doctor said that the first test was false. I don't feel well in myself and haven't done for 6 years and it is getting me very depressed. my doctor doesn't seem to have any answers and to be honest doesn't really seem interested. can you help.
