I am a 23 year old male for the last year I have been feeling weaker and weaker. I woke up one day last year and felt extremely sore after bowling and just brushed it off as nothing as i felt better after a day or two. Now just doing regular acitivites such as walking or raising my arms i get tired extremely quickly and my joints feel stiff and heavy.
The doctor brushed it off as anxiety but i knew i shouldnt be feeling this sore after normal activities and he ran some blood work. My vitamin D levels were very low and he said i had hypothyroidism and am now taking synthroid. He said this could be responsible for my muscle problems but I have been taking the supplements and the thyroid medication for around 3 months and still havent really felt better.
At times i also get numbness and tingling in my feet but not sure thats anything more then my foot falling asleep as well as a preasure under my left eye. Its not painfull but definally feels different then my right.
Thanks in advance for responses
