[QUOTE="Genny, post: 57057, member: 95"] I have a Dr's appointment today and I'm going to request a thyroid test. For the past few months my memory has been getting worse, I'm "snappy" with husband, and I've been gaining weight - despite consciously watching what I eat and trying to stay active. husband and I both quit smoking nearly two months ago, and the symptoms have gotten worse - and now include constipation, no matter how much roughage I eat! I'm putting on weight at an alarming rate, even though my eating and exercise habits haven't changed. At first I chalked it up to my metabolism changing due to the lack of nicotine. But now I'm wondering if I've had an underactive thyroid for a while, but the nicotine counteracted some of the effects. Please share your thoughts, opinions, and experiences! This is all new to me. Thanks - Genny [img]:ill:[/img] [/QUOTE]
