That sounds like a thyroid issue to me. Are her fingernails breaking?

Hi Laree

Thank you.

Actually her fingernails are fine and her Doctor says her thyroid is fine, but that was 6 month ago.

She will go to him again soon.

Thyroid is tricky because the blood test can be fine, but the conversion process can still be messed up. Have her take her temperature a few times tomorrow and see if it's normal or low (it changes during the day). Most people consider that a pretty good indicator. Thinning eyebrows is a real good indicator, too, although there may be plenty of other reasons for that.

My fingernails start breaking about the same time as my eyebrows start thinning. Either one gets my attention back on thyroid.
