I had all the symptoms of pain in joints, tiredness, bladder symptoms and nail ridges, brittle nails and thinning hair.
A cough and chilling off and on.
before I was discovered to have low thyroid and before my blood worked showed reactive markers. I developed ISLD and AFIB. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis.
I should have pushed my doctor to send me to a specialist.
@jilliemo12345 mine too. But I’ve read articles that state ridged nails are a sign of hypothyroidism. I don’t know … perhaps the ridges become permanent? Medication doesn’t really cure the condition - just keeps it in control. 🤷🏼♀️
