Thyroid Hormone - The Most Overlooked Treatment For Fibromyalgia - HypoThyroidMom.com - A reader named Jules contacted me a few months ago with chronic pain from fibromyalgia so bad she was struggling to walk and to take care of her young son. Her symptoms included extreme swelling, fatigue, hair loss, pressure in her throat, and loss of the outer-third of her eyebrows.
