Does anyone know does the thyroid affect your brain so to speak. I had my thyroid removed and ever since I got it out my brain is something else. I had a head injury sometime ago and when I had my thyroid taken out it was like waking up from the dead. I am on medication now to replace my thyroid and like I said I am a totally different person now since my thyroid was removed. But I want to get the real facts how the brain affects thyroid medication or the thyroid please.
