Message: <blockquote data-quote="Resurgam" data-source="post: 2254227" data-attributes="member: 355878">I had numerous tests for thyroid levels even though I had all the symptoms of failure, was told they were all fine, until one time I went in and the GP looked at the results and said 'there is something very wrong' - well my cardio vascular response to alarm is just find thank you very much. What she meant was that finally the results showed low thryroid function and a frantic pituitary with the TSH at about four thousand times the normal level.Over the years I noticed that when my supplement needed to be increased my eyebrows shortened, no longer reaching the outer edge of my brow ridge. Add more Thyroxine and they grew back. Some time later I got hold of the old medical books from home (they were always kept hidden away when I was younger) and discovered that it was a symptom that was looked for in years gone by. Reduced body temperature and the slow growth of hair and finger/toe nails were other symptoms. The cure was minced thyroid glands back then of course.</blockquote>
