Re: Thyroid Disease and Peripheral Neuropathy?

[Guest guest]

Hi Jackie,

My sister-in-law is not feeling well---tired, depressed, weight gain---and she

has

tingling/numbness in her fingertips.

She is being tested for thyroid as we speak.

Interesting article!

before. Does

anybody here have both, thyroid antibodies and peripheral neuropathy? I guess

another

reason to test for antibodies.-------Jackie

I have neuropathy - no reflexes at all. I have a pupil that is less responsive

to light than the

other and the Dr says it might be MS or a brain tumor, but also possibly heavy

metals

poisoning. My other DR says I have adrenal stress/distress which is generating

high TSH

from not converting T4 to T3 enough. So I have adrenal thyroid issues not fully

characterized

and neuropathy.
