Creaky body, some bone pain - new since thyroidectomy?

I posted a similar question a couple of months ago. Bad leg pain, muscle ache, fatigue, weight gain. My endocrinologist basically blew me off and said that none of it was related to my thyroidectomy. I explained to him that I did not have any of this prior to my surgery. He of course, said, based on the TSH levels that was not the reason for my symptoms. I was definitely dismissed. I sent an appointment with my rheumatologist, and she said that the thyroid could possibly be related because anything can happen. I’ve been to a functional Doctor Who prescribed all sorts of supplements. I hear all of your frustration and wish I had answers for all of us.

Thank you. Your experience is very helpful. I did Google supplements. But I don't want to take them. I am being more consistent with calcium intake and supplements.
I try to stay on my feet more.

I personally think the bloodwork and "Normal" levels are not sufficient for some of us. So many women say they have symptoms of low thyroid on levothroxine but their bloodwork says they are "Normal".
