Side ache

I was reading the posts and remember reading something about someone talking about
side pain, (kidney, liver?) Anyway I wrote a few days ago about my TSH coming back in
the 18 range. And here I was thinking that I was no longer hypo. Oh well. Anyway, I indicated
that I wasn't really suffering from any hypo symptoms until I read about the side aching comments
from someone. What causes this in relationship to hypo. Both sides where I bend hurt. I've been trying
to ignore it but perhaps it has something to do with my hypo status. Will this go away once I resume
thyroid meds or should I have someone look at it specifically. I truly appreciate your welcome and
someone to talk to about my journey. Right now it's not too fun but I hope that I can get a better handle on
all these problems and try to move forward.

I complained about flank pain for several months. I had kidney tests, a colonoscopy, and nothing turned up. I was blaming it on half the organs in my body.

Doc finally sent me to physical therapy and it turned out to be muscular.

Now I too want to see this info about side pain.  I was diagnosed hypo about a year ago and am currently taking 125 mcg Synthroid.  Last I knew my TSH level was under 2.00.  But I have a pain on my left side in the back ( waist ) that comes and goes but usually occurs after eating.  My doc thought it was muscular but I'm thinking not.  But I never thought of the pain having anything to do with my thyroid stuff.  Would love to get more info!
