My thyroid levels test fine, but I still need have low thyroid symptoms. Should I take a growth hormone test?
At age 7 I was diagnosed with hyper thyroid. At age 50, I was diagnosed with partial hyper pituitary with hyperthyroid. At age 45 an MRI found a small pituitary tumor, and now it is gone. I have breast milk, low back pain, low stomach pain, dry skin, hair falls out, brittle nails, depression and the list goes on. I need about 10-12 hours of sleep a night. I have never weighed this much before in my life. I am about 50 pounds over weight.Now my Endo is recommending the growth hormone test. What do you think?

Thorough pituitary testing seems in order - GH testing would be part of this.
