Please ask your doctor about using a vibration machine. Whole body vibration works your body, improving your body composition and things like circulation without you overexerting yourself. People who have a hard time with regular exercise find that a vibration platform really helps them feel better. Good luck.
as mentioned earlier.. please don't do the 'exercise' - that is for healthy people with energy - i.e not us.
maintain range of movement with gentle stretching.. but housework and essential errands are sufficient for exercise!
if our screaming muscles can't make us listen, then nothing else will.
take care and be kind to yourself
Read the book, Stop the Thyroid Madness. There is also a website. Sounds like you need to add some T3 medication, as you are still having health issues inspite of taking a T4 ony medication. I take T3 ad T4 and fatigue and all related symptoms are pretty much gone. However, perimenopause, stress and hormones wreck havc on many women. So change your diet to healthy options. Nothing in packages or with sugar. This is what helped me. Not all thyroid doctors are equal. Look for one that will prescribe T3 also and who goes also by your symptoms not just the number on your TSH test. Also, Kathyo68 is right about checking your adrenals. Need an alternative health care doctor. Good Luck.
Sounds like major thyroid issues. Try selenium supplements along with iodine based foods. Go to health food store and look for a thyroid booster. All of the symptoms you have sounds a lot like what I have. Unfortunately most doctors don't check all thyroid levels. Make sure you get T3, T4, antibodies, and total TSH taken. Your numbers should be between 0.3 and 3. If it is higher than a 3, you need major thyroid support for Hypothyroidism. Good luck. You may also want to get your adrenals checked too. Sounds like they are burnt out.
Good Luck to you.

First of what an amazing amount of willpower you have. keep your spirits high!

Dont bother taking any chemical substances, that'll only destroy your body further. (As its already under heavy oxidative and nitrosative stress, which in turn kills mitochondrian [which make the enery your body runs on], ruins your thyriod and kidneys and pretty mch everything else) For literature see Martin p Pall in the usa or W Kersten in Europe.
It'll cost a fortune and takes time but using all this i've gotten from not being able to doing simple maths (adding and substracting) severe memory ussues to being completely bedridden to studying at an University. (Contracted it at age 14, now im 24)
Take care!
Ps detoxing, to get the chemicals out of your body helps. Try first cleanse from renew life. And please also take their probiotica (50billion) because its highly likely that whatever is left in your body aint that much nor that helpfull
