Juls, palpitations can be caused by under and over medication. Can you post your recent thyroid blood results with lab ref ranges and state how much thyroid medication you are taking to help members comment/advise.

I used to get awful palpitations with levo. Some people are sensitive to fillers/binders. I don't now and take T3 only.

Some doctors prescribe beta-blockers for palpitations but if yours does, take it well away from levo as it can interfere with the uptake of levo.
