I m now being checked for thyroid issues. Do I need to see a specialist that studies blood? Something is wrong and I need answers. Thank you.
Hello....... Thanks for your query. As you mentioned many of symptoms of hypothyroidism like extreme fatigue, generalized weakness can mimic depression. Also, sometimes thyroid disorders can have onset after a still birth. Hence, I would suggest going ahead with thyroid function tests and consult an endocrinologist. You would also require an evaluation for depression by a psychiatrist. Hope you find the suggestions useful. Regard Chat Doctor.
