Forgot to have you check out the "Thyroid Disorder" forum. I'm guessing those folks will have some good advice for you.

Sheesh.........hope I got all those numbers right!
Much of what you describe could be anxiety related. Since I'm not a doctor, I can't speculate on what could be caused by your thyroid, your thyroid meds or anxiety. This doctor that you're seeing...........is he/she an endochronologist? If not, that is who I'd see to get some answers. I don't know enough about thyroid problems other than the fact they can and often do "mimic" anxiety. But I wouldn't be happy with a doctor who says "MAYBE it's both." It could very well be both, but I want a doctor who knows for CERTAIN. Can't comment on the amitriptyline, but if you know that it should be used with caution if you have a thyroid condition, I'd sure be asking a ton of questions about that!
Many folks on this forum have thyroid issues, so I'm sure you will be getting some responses to your post that are far more informative than mine.
I wish you luck in finding your answer, which I'm certain you will.
Peace
