Thanks for asking question gone through your query. Your 12-year-old son is suffering from GAD and ADHD, and taking medicine. You consulted GP for his fatigue and not feeling well. GP noticed enlarged thyroid, and some blood test was done which reported normal. There is nothing to worry about enlarged thyroid. The thyroid gland size enlarges in this age group, the increase in size of thyroid is normal in this age, there is nothing to concern for present and future .size of third will decrease itself over about 6 months .this is normal part of development in adolescent. There are many cause for fatigue in this age group. So time medicine for GAD can cause easy fatigue. So talk with doctor who is treating GAD. In this growing age requirement of all nutrients, esp iron and protein is increased. I generally tell my patient for proper diet or I supplement by food supplements hope i able to answer your query wishes you healthy family life
