Are you now or have you been hypothyroid?

How do you handle it? Hypothyroidism, how long does it last? If there are any other endocrinologists in the house or anyone that knows anything about this, please let me know. What is the usual starting dose? What is it based on? I'm told I have most of the classic symptoms, only they also resemble diabetes. Thirst, going to the bathroom a lot at night (at least 2-3 times, dry, hair (split ends) hair falling out, brittle fingernails despite my 1500mg of Calcium Citrate/day w/Vitamin D; swollen/puffy face, especially my eyes, insomnia...wanna hear more??
