Thanks guys! My mom thinks the dr will know what to test for but I knew to check here first! Okay, so I should ask for a full thyroid panel, hashimoto's, grave's, vit D, vit B12, and possibly a general metabolic test and electrolytes. To answer some of your questions... I've heard that soy is bad for the thyroid. I've only eliminated soy once...
