Do Patients With Hashimoto's Swing Between Hypothyroidism And Hyperthyroidism?
Do patients with Hashimoto's swing between hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism? Do they ever suffer pschotic episodes? Over the past couple of years I had symptoms of both hypo and hyper mimicing bipolar. Now I am on thyroxine for hypothyrodisim but still feel as though I have lingering low grade depression.
