I do....

do either of your parents or siblings?

It generally will happen after women give birth....as it did to me.

Both of my parents have hypo-thyroidism.....it is a true curse.
However, educating yourself about it...and having a good Dr. makes it no problem once you get the hang of it.
It really doesnt bother me...treated it 'goes away'. You just have to monitor it very closely thru blood tests.

*brittle nails, dry skin and fatigue..would all be symptoms if untreated...
