Hyperthyroidism?


I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism 2 years ago. I had always had opposite symptoms of hyper, symptoms more like hypo. I was sick all the time, cold all the time, extremely weak, would almost fall asleep at work even in the middle of typing and getting training *blush*, weight gain, depression, etc.
I just read in another yahoo answers that when thyroid is hyperactive the TSH levels are low and hypoactive TSH levels are high. I had very very high. I guess normal is like 30% to 35% and mine was in the 90% range. They said I was hypo at first then rechecked and said I was hyper. So now I'm so confused. They put me on tapizole and it brought me to normal levels....but why was everything including TSH levels opposite?
Also.....a few years before diagosed I got very depressed. I seemed to have lost myself and had terrible judgement that only got worse. I fell out of love with a long time bf. Since treatment I've gotten better and realized I never stopped loving him. Do you..

..think that my train of thought and depression was so bad that it affected my judgement in that relationship.
After my treatment I and gradually got better I just snapped out of the haze and realized the past few years I had become a totally different person. I've changed back since then. So I just wondered if it had something to do with my thyroid problem/.

thyroid problems can cause depression but judgement problems, maybe not. As long as your TSH levels are normalised, things should be OK, just stay in touch with your doctor, good luck
