O.T. Health questions

Has anyone here ever experienced hypothyroidism? I am 42 years old. I have always had cold feet at bedtime, but now I am experiencing intolerance to the cold weather. Every winter just seems to get worse & worse. I dread it when it gets below the 50's (don't laugh you who are used to 30 below). I just feel chilled to the bone when I have to go out in 20-30 degree weather. Plus I am tired most of the time. I don't do anything afterwork or on weekends. I don't feel like fooling with my trucks much. I don't enjoy my gym workouts. My job sucks more & more energy out of me. I have a doctors appointment in 2 weeks. I intend to have bloodwork done, including a TSH test. I have been reading online & I have most all the symptoms of an underactive thyroid gland. This has been gradually getting worse over the past 7-10 years.

Has anyone dealt with these symptoms?

Thanks
