I was reading about a possible link with thyroid problems and bipolar. I had some problems with thyroid bloodwork a couple years ago and need to have it redone. Just wondering what you all know about it.

Mine is up in the air at the moment--one minute it tests WAY off, the next time normal (I'm having the same problem with my blood sugar).

I lurk here once in a while and just recently been diagnosed with bipolar. I am hypothyroid and have been for about 7 years. What would you like to know about it?

I was reading on psysch-education.com of a possible link between the two and was looking to see if anyone knew more about the link. I just had my thyroid retested this morning. What your symptoms? Were you diagonosed with bp around the same time? What is being done about it (thyroid) and how do you monitor it? I think those are my questions for now. Thanks a lot. Glad to "meet" you.
