    low thyroid is hypothyroidism. which is what i have. can be fixed with meds probably for the rest of your life. i will be on my meds for the rest of my life. can cause weight gain, more easily effected by weather(hot/cold), moody, tired. and far as potassium i would eat a banana a day to help with that. but the thyroid problem is more serious than the potassium level i think

    Low thyroid may make you gain weight, feel lethargic, unmotivated, etc.
