Thyroid issues

My hair has been falling out and getting thin. I have also been putting on weight although I still eat the same amount of food. I seem to have less energy and I am becoming lazy. I think that I will start taking some of my dog's thyroid pills.

Richard,

That is a completely different problem. It is close so I could see the confusion. It is called low T not low thyroid. I won'y say it is from getting old, but it is a side effect of maturity.

"Maturity"..... I like that. It has taken me 69 years but I have finally matured. My mother was wrong. She said that I would never grow up. And my daddy said that I would never live past 40. I have proven them both wrong, just out of spite. .

When I take my dog to the Vet to get her T4 level checked can they draw my blood and check my level also? Is it the same test? Where is Dr Allahda?

Thyroid issues must be a big thing in guys. I just heard an ad on the radio for a Low T Center that just tested men's T level and sold meds to increase it. They said that a low T level decreased your performance. That is what happened to my dog. I wonder if I should take her with me to the Low T Center?

Increasing her T level will probably just make her ornery. lol
