Does anyone know what these symptoms could be?
by hmd, Oct 18, 2001 12:00AM
For the past few months I have suffering from the following symptoms:
-persistent nausea
-no appetite/weight loss
-headaches/vague and continuous
-fatigue
-hard time focusing on tasks/fuzzy head feeling
-hair loss
-chills
If anyone has any insight to what these symptoms could be, I would greatly appreciate it. I have had numerous blood tests done, barium swallow and endoscopy. I'm scheduled for a CT scan on Friday. I'm losing faith that my doctors will figure out what this is. I have been unable to go to work because of the nausea. HELP!

I would definitely see a doctor about this. There are specific Thyroid tests that can be performed to diagnois this. Best of luck.
I have been thinking all along that it has something to do with my thyroid. I had blood tests done to check my thyroid levels and they are all normal. About 4 years ago I had the same symptoms and my thyroid levels were high. After a few months of medication, the doc took me off and my thyroid levels remained normal. Do you know if it is possible to have a thyroid condition that may not show up in a blood test? Also, I haven't had my period for 2-1/2 months and had a pregnancy test done so I know I am not pregnant. Could this have anything to do with it?
