Hi , Just to say this message board is great.I am Scottish and can't believe how much info you all seem to get about your illnesses.I suffer from hypothyroidism and all i seem to get from my doctor is that my blood tests are ok or my dosage needs increased. Any "side effect" I query is dismissed and I feel no one takes my illness seriously .Maybe some of you can help or advise me .Look forward to talking to you all xx

Hi shonah2007,


Welcome to our board.


It would help if you could get more information from your doctors so you can understand your condition.

Hi cl-calley7,

Thank you so much for the info .Will try to stay up till 2am Thursday
to join in your live chat as I am 4hrs ahead in Scotland.

Can anyone else who has hypothyroidism tell me if they suffer from
dizziness .I have had dizzy spells on and off for the last 7 yrs -
since before diagnosed.
