Temperature and hypo
In another thread, someone mentioned that one sign if they were well medicated was a normal temperature. I took my temperature and it is 96.7F or 35.9C. From what I can tell that is too low.

I've found that my vision has deteriorated in the past year, is this related to hypothyroidism? I'm short sighted, and had new lenses not so long ago, but my vision is blurred and weak with them. My night vision is very poor too. Is there anything I can do? Thankyou. ... 9 Jan 2006 04:18
