Have you been tested for Fibromyalgia and Rheumatoid Arthritis Kevin?
Get these labs done if you havent.
I cant comment on the natural hormone but with a T4 med, those symptoms go after about the 3rd day with me.

Not sure if there is a lab test to confirm it, i think they check all the pressure points in your body, i think you need around 12 pressure points in your body to be inflamed or something to confirm it..This is what i was told anyway...

My joints and muscles ached bad until i was put on meds for Hypo..so yes this is a symptom of Hypo and under medicated..My pain started to ease after about eight weeks, I had more muscular pain tho, with cramping, joints were mainly hips and elbows but this has all eased as well...So i assume if your under medicated this will be still happening, but it can if you are over medicated as well..

I am hypo and have alot of joint and muscle pain. I am on meds but still not regulated yet. My Vit. D was also low so I am now on that. I swear after you turn 45 your body starts to fall apart!!!

You sure are right there lol !
Once I hit 47 my body started to feel every ache and pain but nothing compares to the Hypo aches and pains...they are horrible.
Not to mention the feeling of dom and gloom anf feeling 'flat'.
But I guess we all have things thrown at us to test us out in life.
As hard as things seem to be...we always seem to make it to 'the other side'.

i was reading in abook that 80 percent of these symtoms are caused by hypothyroidism and its being undertreated. the main  thing is to treat the hypotyroidism to rid yourself of fibromialga,chroinic fatique.
