My husband is 42 and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 2 years ago. He is on unithroid 112mcg and gets checked every 3 to 6 months, but he still isn't feeling well. He has symptoms like high blood pressure, fatigue, brain fog, memory loss, low testosterone, and is on cholesterol meds. Should he continue seeing his general doctor for this or should he see an endocrinologist? Would a specialist know more?
