Your post made me wonder about my thyroid as well. I have all the symptoms as you and no matter what, I can't lose anything significatly. I am diabetic as well.
I havn't had a complete work up since I quit chemo, so maybe I should get mine checked. At my highest, I literally tipped the scales st the hospital and lost over 200 pounds NATURALLY. Steroids with chemo and the high calorie "smoothies" I was on caused me to gain back about 60 pounds. Now that I want to get it off, I can't lose over 2 pounds, then bam it's back! I think a check-up is in order. Wish me luck!!!
