Muscle Symptoms - Possible Over Medication?
Was diagnosed in August with a TSH of 36 and started taking Levo 75mcg on Aug 30 (10 weeks ago), then switched to
Synthroid
100mcg on Sept 20 (7 weeks ago). I thought my symptoms were from a herniated disc until I started getting sick and got bloodwork, so that's why it took so long.

Levo
I'm never going back to
Synthroid
. I hope other people have a positive outcome as well. I took
Synthroid
for years because my doctor told me too. I feel like I lost a bit of my like because it caused me so many problems. Thanks, Mnqbr3

My thyroid doctor pretty much fired me today, I’ve tried every kind of
Synthroid
generic brand and they all make my throat sore so he let me go back on armor but if I were to get pregnant he told me that he’s not going to go with that and he’s going to follow me he said and he doesn’t like how that Armour

Tests after Biotin stopped
I have been bugging my PCP for nearly two years about my lingering symptoms of hypothyroidism, despite being on 175 mcg / day of
Synthroid
. Specifically, going bald, fragile nails, cold intolerance, dry gritty eyes, difficulty losing weight, puffiness under eyes, and fatigue.

First time post; long time follower. Please help with new blood test results.
For the last 6 months, I was on
Synthroid
112 and I started twice a day 5 mcg of Liothyronine. I am having issues understanding my latest results since TSH has jumped big time.

Can Hypothyroidism explain all my symptoms? B6 Toxicity? Help!
Medication I've been off and on: diclofenac, gabapentin, tylenol, advil, morphine (only a few times) and of course
synthroid

) however did not receive the same results and am trying new alternative holistic approaches now. * Mind * Body * Soul = Eat, Live & Be Clean LIVING!

Synthroid or Armour
I assume that it means that my T4 isn't converting into T3 and in my upcoming doctors appointment I am debating if to ask for my medication to be changed from
Synthroid
to Armour or to ask my doctor instead to just add Cytomel to my
Synthroid
.

Switched to Synthroid from levothyroxine
Hi, I just switched from 56 mcg of levothyroxine to 75 mcg of
Synthroid
. Is that too big of a jump? Could be coincidence but I slept horrible last night--felt wired and heart rate felt faster than normal. I also take 5mcg of T3 daily. Thank you.

Do I need more than Synthroid?
I'm in the USA - and still feel very tired every day, dizzy spells the doctor can't find reason for, bones ache .. had thyroid removed a year ago (was hyperthyroid/goitre) ... Could I need T3/NDT? Could I need vitamin/mineral tests? TSH1.580 uIU/mL0.450 - 4.500 uIU/mL T4, Total10.5 ug/dL4.5 - 12.0

Too soon to write off NDT??
I've been on
synthroid
and levo (which lowered my TSH but did nothing for my symptoms) and have recently gotten my doc to finally prescribe Erfa. I was so confident that it would be the answer to my prayers, but alas, its giving me a whole new crop of bad symptoms.

Never mind the product, feel the cost!
This is just an aside about
Synthroid
costs, but it does show that this product is unnecessarily expensive compared with other formulations of T4.

Does taking T3 restore hair that was lost while hypo?
What I am wondering is this: If I could convince my doctor (or find one that doesn't require convincing) to add some T3 to my
Synthroid
therapy, is there any chance some of that lost hair would grow back?

Never Trust An Endo !!!!!!
I was on 200 mcg of
Synthroid
. This endo took me off of the
Synthroid
for 2 weeks and that is when I began to get panic attacks. I brought this to the attention of the endo and she suggested antidepressants which I declined. I knew it was the lack of thyroid medication.
