I have Graves disease which is also autoimmune but my thyroid was sky high at time of surgery, and even though they did thyroid bloods nobody even mentioned it. It contributed to me feeling very emotional with poor sleep and it also makes my appetite soar . ..which means I gain weight even though high. It was brought under control by my endocrinologist whilst doing chemo and certainly helped with the emotional side of coping with cancer. Mine is stable presently on thyroid suppressents. Except for hair loss I pretty much have all your symptoms post chemo (it is only 4 months though) and I put a lot down to femera. I truly hope you will feel better soon and at least start to get back your zest for life.
