I had my thyroid removed two years ago. I am constantly tired, no matter what I do. I even switched to dessicated thyroid medication -and that didnt help either. I sometimes want to cry but feel dead inside. I know exactly what this woman is going through. You feel alone and misunderstood. It is extremely difficult to relate to healthy people (people with normal thyroid) ... I hope that she doesnt give up. I find relaxing activities really help. Maybe buy her a sketch book and some pencil crayons. To keep her mind off of things. It helps me. <3
ps. I have also, since my surgery, started having back and joint pain. If you didn't know, synthroid actually promotes muscle and bone deterioration. That could be a cause for pain. My tyroid wasn't cancerous, just overgrowing and at the time of my surgery extremely hyper.
