What does Dr. Lauren Fitzgerald say about thyroid and DHEA on the Mind Pump podcast?
I have been getting bloodwork done at my doctor for a few years with questions about why I feel terrible, even though I work out regularly, eat well, and take care of myself. My blood work is 'normal,' but I certainly do not feel normal. Do you have a recommendation on what the next step could be? Is there a pathway I can use to take this bloodwork and get another opinion or additional supporting tests that give me answers?
