Hypothyroidism and weird symptoms

I am 33M, diagnosed with hypothyroidism / Hashimotos when i was 28. Since then i have had these weird symptoms, and i have addressed them to my doctors, been referred to so many doctors like endocrinologists, gastroenterologists, orthopedics, psychologists, psychiatrists, GPs but none of them could address what exactly was going on, despite i have done the complete blood work done including almost everything.

The symptoms are the same till date, some worsened, but the endocrinologist has prescribed me Thyroxine and referred me to a psychiatrist, where it doesn't help. I don't understand what's going on, and i am quite tired now dealing with all the symptoms like:

  • Current / Recurring:
    • weight increased from 77 kg to 105, now stuck at 98 kg
    • globus or a feeling that something is stuck in my throat
    • fatigue, most of the time
    • barely feel hunger
    • cold intolerance
    • no matter how much I do strength training or walk or cardio, i couldn't lose weight or get rid of this fat or gain muscle
    • random body aches or muscle cramps
    • recently, it happened that i had a panic attack, with a shortness of breath and inability to walk or move my limbs, was rushed to the ER where pulse was 113 and bp was 136/91 but doctor said it's just a panic attack, i did tell him that i had panic attacks in the past but never had this feeling before, i even requested for ECG but he didn't perform, since then my resting heart rate while being awake is in 80s to 90s, if i do just random strolling it jumps to 110 to 120s and easily above 130 with low paced walk.
    • upper back pain along with that mid back pain and when i wake up, it feels like the pain is also coming in the chest and abdominal area, i just couldn't change the sides or stretch my back, it hurts
    • on taking deep breath, my back and stomach hurts and i couldn't take deep breath
    • sleep cycle worsened
    • stress/anxiety/depression and developed a fear of everything
    • severe brain fog and inability to focus on work, got laid off last year and since then, struggling to find any work as i get blank easily during the interviews
    • get irritated and angry very easily and over the smallest of things
    • Random headaches/migraines
  • Old issues that barely happen now
    • headache at the back of the head that travels to neck all the way to shoulder to back and i started feeling dizzy and sometimes pass out
    • hands/feet numbness and tingling

I don't know what is going on, i am so worried, i have gone through complete blood work multiple times over the years but no help.

I wanted to know how could i improve all of these things, i am so tired with all this stuff.

Please guide.

Need some info and guidance related to QA/DevOps

Hello Everyone,

I need some guidance as i have been working as a Software Quality Assurance Engineer for a while now transitioning to Automation. But I always wanted to go for DevOps.

Thing is what i have observed and learnt so far is there are a few practices of DevOps that are being followed in the QA field too here in pakistan, hence i was just thinking to move towards the DevOps side now.

So, i wanted to ask if there's any institute especially in Lahore from where i could get proper certification for it, i just don't need any random course that teaches who's and how's. I want an authentic certification, can anyone please guide and advise.

Thank you
