The symptoms of Hypothyroidism are:
Fatigue
Weakness
Weight gain or increased difficulty losing weight
Coarse, dry hair
Dry, rough pale skin
Hair loss
Cold intolerance (can't tolerate the cold like those around you)
Muscle cramps and frequent muscle aches
Constipation
Depression
Irritability
Memory loss
Abnormal menstrual cycles
Decreased libido
Each individual patient will have any number of these symptoms which will vary with the severity of the thyroid hormone deficiency and the length of time the body has been deprived of the proper amount of hormone. Some patients will have one of these symptoms as their main complaint, while another will not have that problem at all and will be suffering from a different symptom. Most will have a combination of a number of these symptoms. Occasionally, some patients with hypothyroidism have no symptoms at all, or they are just so subtle that they go unnoticed
My sons were shakiness, loss of weight (it can be gaining wieght too) He also had "buggy eyes" a little and he couldnt see well out of the sides of his eyes.
A simple blood test will tell you if you have what they call an over active or under. Both cases you are put on hormones for it. It is called "Graves Disease" and you can find all kind of things on it , like Yahoo health.
Most people lead normal lives with it while being on medication.
