I don't think he connected you with your prior post.
I'm so glad you got your meds. :-) I don't know if you noticed but there is some more posts on your question below. Yes, those symptoms you mentioned are associated with hypothyroidism along with many others. It problably won't do any good to get your TSH tested right now but you show have it done in about 8 weeks to see where your at.
Were you ever able to get into that web sight I gave you?
Have a great Easter, Eeyore, & God Bless you & your family, Jean

Please post in general -- likely not thyroid med related unless levels are significantly off.
