Thyroid problems are common in women, hypothyroidism is usually autoimmune and if you have one autoimmune condition you are greater risk getting more of them. And hypothyroidism makes you unbelievably tired and listless and a lot more, So get it checked.Is it likely to be my thyroid???
Turns out i had been tested for it on my last blood test and all is okay she just said to take vitamins so i have just bought these....Thyroid problems are common in women, hypothyroidism is usually autoimmune and if you have one autoimmune condition you are greater risk getting more of them.

Ask for vitamin B12 and folate to be tested too, as of course iron levels, both Ferritin and Hb.
Ohh okay then will do!Get a print out of results. They don't always know how to interpret these tests.
Here is my little list of possible causes of tiredness, others have mentioned some of these.
The blood tests for thyroid tend not to be the complete set, so you may still have problems.
- Underactive Thyroid
- High blood sugars
- Iron deficiency anaemia
- Vitamin D deficiency
- Vitamin B12 deficiency
- Depression
- Stress
- Sleep Apnea
- Not getting enough sleep or good quality sleep
Hmmm well I will see if anything improves taking these vitamins if not then I will go back!I agree I remember one time i was so tired i got up had a drink and got on the couch and rested all was too much for me .....thats when i went to the Doctors and told them the symptoms some of which I didn't have but after doing a day on glands in my nursing course I decided that was what i had and hey presto when the blood test results came back it was Hyporthyroidism......
What would I change to? I am using novo rapid atm?Try changing insulin. A change is as good as a rest.
