Doscolored Nails

by Jyoti57, Aug 10, 2009 07:26AM
My fourth and fifth finger nail beds are an orange color with the nails a stained dark yellow.  I have had my thyroid tested and conventional medicine states it falls within normal levels; although my T-3 is not converting to T-4 as it should....(or is it the other way around?).  Drs do not recognize the nail problem and I have been unable to obtain even a trial on thryoid medication.  Thyroidism runs in my family; I am battling weight gain and fatigue.  Help!.

What were your levsl?
If you post them here, others can post and help.
Also are you Hyper or Hypo in regards to the thyroid?
And its the T4 that converts to T3.

Post your TSH, FT3 & Ft4 levels here.
