Confused About My Dizzy Spells: Is It Hashimotos or Something Else?

Hey there I also struggle with this. I went through a really bad period of dizziness for a while and was convinced it was hunger related. I already had some thyroid issues but was diagnosed with hoshimotos soon after the dizziness started. My doctor put me on medication and got my levels normal but the dizziness didn't go away. I had a talk with my doctor and explained I was still experiencing some symptoms. She was willing to up my dose and I have never felt dizzy ever since. If my levels ever get a bit lower even if still in normal range, I get dizzy again.

Hey! This is something that I also struggle with. I've definitely had dizzy spells and fainting spells. I know thoes with hashimoto's are more likely to have fainting spells but I also struggle to know if it's stress or hungry. I like to keep snacks on me along with water.

My mother had her thyroid removed due to cancer. It seems to greatly affect how she tolerates her blood sugar dropping. Like, I can see it on her face. Hear it in her voice. We usually shove sugar in her face as quickly as possible and that often helps. Sometimes if there is physical pain or stress mixed in, she needs to sit or lie down to fully recover. I’m not sure if this helps, but wanted to assure you that you aren’t alone
