Leg pain

[nettiboo1982]

I've been getting weird leg pain since starting these meds is that normal any advice please

Yes, I got leg pains a little while after beginning then it progressed to being completely stiff and movement was difficult. The GP didn't think it was connected but, for me, it was.

Sometimes it can be due to the fillers/binders in levo which may be affecting you. Take note of the one you are using now and maybe try changing to another supplier when your next prescription is due.

Also, sometimes if you are not on enough medication you can also have a similar problem.

I sympathise with you.

I remember another member on here having terrible pains in her knees which went when she swapped to T3. I know it is early days for you, but maybe starting again more slowly with your thyroxine might help... Hope you feel better soon. xx
