The new Dr. said the results were in the low normal range which most Drs think is fine. He did further tests and now I'm on medication for my thyroid and I lost my extra weight and have more energy. Find a specialist and find out why you are so cold all the time. It's important.
Thanks! I have had my thyroid checked multiple times over the years because of symptoms that were inexplicable but the dr always says normal.
