A layman’s explanation of hypothyroidism is basically low or slow metabolism. This makes weight loss and exercise difficult. A specialist such as endocrinologist at a teaching institution such as Mayo or a University Center could be helpful. Do you have access to anything like this?

Second appointment with endocrinologist on Tuesday. I asked about hypothyroidism type two and got a no. I’m afraid she’s going to push statins which I can’t take and diabetes shots which I will not take. This is what I run into with doctors they don’t want to look further only push meds that don’t work so they just keep making them stronger.
