Wow, I don't know if you will see this Nicole, but you hit the nail on the head. I felt EXACTLY that way when the doctor said, well you have thyroid antibodies but because your TSH isn't bad enough there's nothing we can do. He didn''t suggest any lifestyle/diet changes, just said "well, you are a mom of young kids so that probably explains all your symptoms."
love you 2💓💓
