I had a TT in DEC 06, RAI in JAN 07, then was told I was in full blown menopause at the age of 46 a few months later. I found out a couple of months ago the I was anemic, so I started taking iron supplements on top of my multivitamin. So far I can't tell any difference. Still feel dog tired no matter how much sleep I get. Oh, forgot to mention I have insomia and have been on 3 different types of sleeping pills for about 8 months.
I decided this past year that God had to me a man...cause NO woman would make another woman go thru thyca and menopause in the same year!!!!
Yikes! I hit the button too many times. Sorry!
I am also hypo and have a very low ferritin (9 and 14 on recent tests). I have started taking 156% RDA of iron, even though the PCP said I don't need it!
Did your doc recommend the iron or did you supplement on your own?
I also had a racing heart and it seems better lately. I don't know if the iron helped or the lower TSH is less of a stressor to my body.
Thanks for mentioning the inter-correlation of these symptoms/disorders.
