Hello,
I had similar symptoms to you years ago and with the help of a very astitute Gynecologist, it was determined that my hormones were extremely out of balance (particularly DHEA, testosterone were severely lacking) and my estrogen was spiking intermittently (estrogen dominance). I would ask, has anyone tested your hormones? As well, have they tested your hormone metabolism? Metabolic syndrome is yet another possibility. Finally perhaps even gluten intolerance.
I was diagnosed with all of these --- my condition was a result of years of significant severe emotional distress, combined with environmental issues, diet, possibly other medications and/or genetics. In terms of diet, especially consider the fact that meat and dairy these days contain a very high amount of growth hormones -- this indeed has an effect.
In any case, after my diagnosis, then regulating my diet and adding very good vitamins, supplements, and pharmacy-grade estrogen-regulating substances, I returned to balance and symptoms subsided. Since then I have changed my approach to diet, exercise, self-care, and even in terms of work and my life in general -- stress can play a significant role in one's health.
As I write this, it has been ten years since my initial diagnosis and I'm stabilized as far as my reproductive hormones. Nonetheless, I am now experiencing mild hypothyroidism -- no doubt from years of emotional/mental distress, however, some Physicians cite this as a link to menopause as well. I just wish that the Endocrinologists and Gynechologists would get together on all this -- would certainly make it easier for diagnostic purposes.
Dr. Lupo...I would welcome your input here if you care to.

Sounds like all the thyroid testing is essentially normal.
Negative antibodies suggest against Hashimoto's.
Ultrasound seems to have been normal and the TSH is perfectly normal currently.
Would look elsewhere for cause of symptoms -- consider Addison's, but would have a general physical with an internist to help sort all this out.
