Feb 28, 201115 yr Author This is a test question i dont have the answers we are on fluid an electrolytes and upper and lower gi. Test is in the morning can find answer anywhere.
Feb 28, 201115 yr This is screaming Thyroid dysfunction to me..either hypothyroidism or Hasimoto's . Also look at the Pts age..female..in her 40s....fairly common for thyroid hormone levels to drop. There is not one symptom that is the clincher though.
Feb 28, 201115 yr Author thanks for your input i will let you know tomorrow if the question appears on the test
Mar 2, 201115 yr Author Thanks You Guys for all your help I saw HYPOTHYROIDISM on the test and was able to choose that answer. Thanks again on your input.
