Brief Answer:
Thyroid can be a issue
Detailed Answer:
Hello madam,
I have read your case and I have full sympathy with you. Having so many problems can make any one depressed and frustrated. Not getting right diagnosis is also frustrating.
I have seen many such cases in my OPD, and I think thyroid is main problem. It causes myopathy,that leads to severe body ache. I would suggest you to get your thyroid profile again. Maintain good control of TSH level. I would also recommend you following.
1. In My such patients I give amytryptalin daily.. This take care of fatigue.
2. Start calcium and vitamin
3. Methyocobal one daily helps.
4. Good healthy diet, exercise like yoga or swimming.
I hope this answer will help you. Let me know if you want to ask any other questions. Thanks and take care.

Thank you! How often can a TSH change? My MD keeps increasing my levothyroxine, i feel better for a couple of weeks and the pain starts all over again .
Brief Answer:
Check TSH every 3 months
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Checking TSH every 3 month is necessary and changed your drug accordingly. Good thyroid control will make you feel better. If you feel lazy you can understand that drug doses needs to be increased. If you feel anxious and heart rate is high, dose need to be lowered. Blood test is best marker.
