Okay well that still doesn't make sense because my thryoid is definitively overactive. I just saw my doctor yesterday and he revealed that my TSH levels were down even further, the first time they were 0.16 and the second time they were 0.04. I assume this is very obviously an overactive thyroid.

Furthermore all the symptoms I am experiencing right now are very familiary to me, before birth control I had them all. Some lessened on the bcp but now are back in full force. The first levels were taken on bcp the second were taken a couple of weeks after I stopped bcp.

It doesn't make sense because I am very overweight and never experienced weight loss and certainly am not experiencing it now despite the last three weeks on a low carb diet.
