This is a far too common of a situation for women (and even a few men) and it can extremely frustrating. But, there is hope and a solution for you...with the right diagnosis and the right treatment...you can get your thyroid problems under control.

If you're like most people, when you have a health problem you visit your physician and expect that along with an accurate diagnosis, you may receive medication that alleviates symptoms.

Thyroid patients usually present to their doctor with the problem of extreme fatigue. Other symptoms can be, they can't get out of bed in the morning, they have so little energy. Maybe their eating a good diet and exercising, but they can't drop a single pound, or they may even be gaining weight. They have headaches, mood swings, joint pain, bowel problems and they may be unable to regulate body temperature.

What typically happens for these patients is...they head to the doctor, they receive a diagnosis of low thyroid and place them on the standard treatment of medications. Yet symptoms persist.

If you're in this position you may be told again and again, "The medication is working, there's nothing wrong with your thyroid." Your symptoms continue however, breaking down function and making you feel poorly. You may even feel worse over time, putting you in an even more uncomfortable and perhaps risky situation regarding your long term health.

Any person who is suffering from thyroid symptoms and consistent thyroid problem while being treated should recognize, there is hope and a solution. The symptoms you experience while on medication are real, they are not just in your head, and no...you don't have to just live with it.

There's a very high probability that something's been missed in your diagnosis. It can be related to TSH, maybe birth control pills, other medications...really a whole host of reasons can cause a misdiagnosis of your thyroid.

A comprehensive reevaluation is needed and should be sought right away.

Accurate diagnosis is the key to success in treating thyroid conditions and persistent symptoms. Once that occurs, you can look forward to a significant reversal in the symptoms you're experiencing. You can look forward to losing weight, and this often occurs without even exercising. Your mood will improve, your bowels will improve, the function of your mind and the way you think can all be positively affected. You can look forward to better skin and hair and an end to headaches and joint pain.

A reversal of symptoms is a huge relief for thyroid patients who've been suffering. They finally feel normal, their health is improved, and even better, they know once and for all, something deeply wrong was uncovered -- something they knew all along was really there.

So again, if you still have thyroid problems, even though you are being treated, seek other options an other opinions to get you the answers you need.
