Hi

I`ve been increased to 125 mcg levo for 6 weeks and have felt great! But now tiredness has come back- no other symptom just tiredness this week.

Any thoughts please.

Thanks

Hi

I also increase my levo. to 125mcg. seven weeks ago and last week felt I though it was working as I felt some improvement. I cannot say I felt great but definately some improvement. This week I feel absolutely shattered again.

The last few nights I have slept over 11 hours and after been up for a couple of hours feel like I could nod off again.

I have booked in to have my bloods done next week so will see what they say.

Sorry can't be of any help.

Thanks browny

I just realized that I`ve been sleeping more too, looks like I`ll need to get my bloods done as well.

After six weeks on an increase and you get symptoms, you should have a blood test. That's to check your blood levels, once you are on a dose and don't have symptoms recurring and feel good that's usually your optimum dose and you can stay on that with a blood test every 6 or 12 months.

Thank you shaws

I`ll have a word with my doctor to arrange a blood test
