I have a hypoactive thyroid (under active) and have been taking Levothyroxine for it for about 3 years. This med seems to have no effect on my PD or the C/L I am using.

I have also been taking the same Levothyroxine for about 3 years and no differences have been noted with my PD meds, but I have more energy,

Hi could you tell me which came first the PD or thyriod . I am looking for anyone who had PD first . My question is before you got the Levothyroxine . How was your PD . Do you think the thyroid had any effect ?

My thyroid was dx'ed first but in hindsight, I had the pd before the thyroid. I do not believe there is any connection between the two ... but who knows :)

I had thyroid cancer right before my pd appeared. My neuro says low thyroid exacerbates pd.
