Chillax,
Actually, not entirely correct. Hypothyroidism causes proteoglycan deposition in soft tissues which causes a "doughy" appearance to skin and conceivably could cause bags under the eyes. Hard to tell, of course, without actually seeing the patient in question! Agree with your comment about blood pressure, though.
