ALL THE TIME. Been to ENT with the thought I have chronic sinus infection or superbug. I do seem to have some pretty good insomnia so I take Tylonel PM and it seems to work ok. One of my docs gave me Xanax and said I needed to calm down. No ****! I can't even hardly walk into a Walmart or Sams for fear of just keeling over! Yes, thyroid issues are more related to women, but men have it as well, just not as often. Unfortunately for me, I have it. No one else in my family has it. At Mayo, they did everything...full physical. My heart is fine, MRI's, CT Scans, stress test, EKG, barium MRI's, bloodwork fine. I ride 10 miles on a stationary bike very hard and I get no short of breath symptoms. Actually, when I'm working out, I feel best. I do notice at times, I am sensitive to cold temps. Or when I walk into our house and it's 75 degrees like my wife and kids like it, I'm cold! How the hell can that be? Then after a while, I'll warm up. Low sex drive with is a real downer. Up until the last month or so, I was always wanting to have sex. It was just my nature. Now, seems things have tapered way down....which just isn't me.

I am also a male with hypothyroidism, currently under control, and feeling best ever. I'd like to relate more, but have to leave for a while. More later. gimel From re-reading your post I get the idea that the only thyroid test used to diagnose and treat you has been TSH . This totally does not work. TSH is a pituitary hormone that is affected by so many variables that at best it is only an indicator, to be considered along with more important indicators such as symptoms, and also levels of the biologically active thyroid hormones, Free T3 and Free T4. Of these Free T3 is the most important because it largely regulates metabolism and many other body functions. Scientific studies have shown that hypo symptoms correlated best with Free t3, while Free T4 and TSH did not correlate. Even though doctors like to believe that TSH reliably reflects the levels of T4 and T3 in your body, I would challenge any doctor to show how TSH correlates adequately with either Free T3 or Free T4, much less correlate with symptoms, which are even more important. 2008;158:273–285.
