>Hi scott , this is gonna sound stupid but in fact
I was diagnosticated with hypothiroidism 3 years ago.
I think this was caused by the Zyprexa . I had a thyroid study and my levels were a little low
The when I stopped taking the zyprexa I had another test and my levels were almost normal but still low .
My doctor gave me medicine one year ago , but I stop taking it because I did not feel any change in my mood
So Im not taking anything , and I have not make me a test since that time.what do you think scott???
