No I have been suffering from this for almost a year. Every Dr just shrugs it off or looks at me like I am crazy. I have a 2 year old (I am 39). I am so exhausted every day as this is causing me to get around 2-3 hours of sleep per night if I am lucky. I feel drained, also my bones hurt really bad, especially on my face, I have severe migraines that I didn’t have before also. I just want to feel better or have a dr listen.

@mittzyvon Could you convince your doctor to put you on Thyroid meds? Taking my dose before bed instantly helps me...the relief is immediate...I can sleep through the night. The aches and pains go away as well...maybe it will work for you too!! (My TSH tests were in the normal range, but a higher dose of Synthroid takes away the symptoms).

@mittzyvon I am a little backed up in reading these posts, so I just now saw that you are having migraines too. I have never heard of them being connected to thyroid, although again, as I said in a prior post, I am not a medical person. Is that common? I was a migraine sufferer prior to menopause but at that point, I did not have any thyroid problem. Now I take a tiny dose of levothyroxine but being past menopause my migraines have disappeared.

You are young to be pre-menopausal but it's certainly not impossible for you to be. Pre-menopause can start well ahead of actual menopause. Have you spoken to your gynecologist about this? I know I had many symptoms when I was pre-menopausal but I can't remember what they were, unfortunately.
