Dear MD, I Have Daily Constipation For The Last Year
Dear MD,
I have daily constipation for the last year and suspect hypothyroidism. I do not have insurance that will cover except for illness or emergencies. Is it possible that when I had my thyroid checked, that the range could be too broad and the doctors missed it? Most of my mother's side of the family have diagnosed thyroid problems in which they take medicine. I am a 42 year old female with a colonoscopy that turned out fine. What do I do next?
Thanks for your kindness with advice,
Julie B.
