Hello!

Welcome on HCM!

I carefully read your question and understand your concern.

Some of your symptoms are be related to a low thyroid function (chronic fatigue, feeling pukish, sleepy, etc.).

But the back pain is not relate to this disorder. It may be related to different disorders : a lumbar column disk disorder, inflammation, musculoskeletal pain, kidney infection, etc.

I recommend you to consult with your GP for a careful physical examination and some tests :

- a lumbar column X ray study
- an abdominal ultrasound
- lab blood tests (complete blood count, inflammation tests, kidney and liver function tests, thyroid hormone levels).

You should discuss with your doctor on the above possibilities.
You may need to change your actual thyroid therapy too.

Hope to have been helpful!
Best wishes,
Dr. Aida
