Have just found a flyer for Thyrosine in the post, wondered if anyone had tried it...
I went to GP recently feeling pretty ropey - v tired and irritable all the time, mornings like wading through concrete, and just didn't feel entirely like myself. Had blood tests, came back "borderline" for thyroid function - low, but not quite low enough for them to prescribe Thyroxine. Re-tested, it had gone up a bit, so will have 3-monthly blood tests to monitor it for now and see what happens.
This week, I have started feeling really tired and ratty again, and mornings are a real struggle again. I am a bit unwilling to go back to the GP, as they have tested quite recently, and also last time I was there, the GP said, "Oh well, you have DS2 (9mo), of course you are tired" - which is true, but I really feel it's more than that. DS2 wakes once a night for a feed and goes back to sleep straightaway, so I am getting plenty of sleep.
Anyway, thinking of trying this Thyrosine, but don't want to if it's dodgy, a rip off etc.
Thanks!
