Tracy, if you can get the actual numbers from your thyroid tests, would you post them? My #s were within the normal limits, too, but my endo says they are not normal for me.
There is a lot of info now on how subclinical hypothyroidism can affect mental health, etc. And, research showing that many people with tsh within normal limits but at 2 or higher, turn out to have more overt thyroid disease later on, and the early signs--mainly nonspecific complaints, and psychiatric symptoms--were ignored.
See the thyroid and depression folder, link at top of PB page, for more info.
