Trying to find a pattern or reason for symptoms need them under control
After reading and learning and talking to others convinced my doctor to give me
synthroid
. Started on 25mg daily. Within 2 weeks was extremely worse. Switched to armour thyroid 15mcg. Was still bad. Told here to increase every 2 weeks until at 90mcg or until feel better.

Synthroid anyone?
Should I insist my GP allows me to try
Synthroid
or similar first? I have been told there is a 50/50 chance of bleeding to death with this surgery. Not very good odds. Thanks for any information.

Absorption: Thyroxine: Low stomach acid, Hashimoto's - and Pernicious Anaemia
The paper was actually proving that a new type of thyroxine gel capsule could be absorbed more easily by people with low stomach acid, than
Synthroid
or Levothyroxine.

Forgot to mention... please read previous post.
I've taken levothyroxin all my life, switched to
synthroid
for just one month of the 112mg . Decided to go back to levothyroxin with my new dosage 125mg was told by a friend to stick with brand I've always used. Does it really matter?

Could it be this bad?
My dr put me on 75mcg of
Synthroid
a day. The first few days were ok. The last 6 or so have been bad....insomnia, mood swings, bouts of anxiety, anger and today i was driving and felt i was having breathing issues....is this normal? Is this just the crap i have to go thru for it to normalize?

Hashimotos/Hair loss
Taking 25mcg
Synthroid
daily. Gluten free for 11 months. Have symptoms I manage, except one. Hair loss. What causes it and what can I do to keep it? I am 61 years old and expect some loss of volume as I age, but this seems extreme.

synthroid
, to armour then NT. But now I have returned to the UK my GP is saying he can't prescribe it!!!! And will have to put me back on levothyroxine!! I'm panicking as it is the only thing that works for me.

When is too soon to test?????,
I have 4 tablets left of my
synthroid
, i just called my endos office to schedule some labs as ive been really tired and feeling down lately. I am on 112mg, but before that was at 200mg. The reason for drastic drop was to start fresh and work our way up to see where I need to be.

Frustration is Increasing
I was diagnosed with Hashimotos 30 years ago and that seemed to resolve with
synthroid
. Then I had large nodules and one lobe of my thyroid removed 10 years ago. Taken off all thyroid replacement after that.

appointment with a New Dr today. She listened!
She told me she likes to see a TSH @ .4- 1 or 2...... but as i am on currently 50 of
synthroid
she said she is glad i changed from generic to name brand because that tends to be more consistent and more people have problems like i did with generics.

New Results – High Reverse T3 Again
If I up the
Synthroid
, I only feel worse. Maybe I cut the 125mcgs in half, and add Cytomel, or add NDT? Maybe I've just been getting the ratio wrong? Any insight is appreciated. Best, Hypoguy
