Levrothroxine 100mcg and temper

[Jodyfmurphy]

Ok Ive never been bad tempered yes Ive had my moments but have been on levothroxine 100mcg for just over a week now and recently my temper has been attrocious the problem is my 9 year old slammed the car boot on my head last week and I'm not sure which is causing the temper!

I'm honestly ready to kill dead things

Jodyfmurphy, If you are having headaches or neck pain you should see your doctor. If not, you could reduce to your previous dose for a week or two to see whether your temper reduces. It will take around a week for the higher dose to wash out.

Ive a doctors appointment tomorrow but I'm reluctant to reduce to dose because it is making me feel better to the point I actually feel I can cope its just the temper lol which isnt helped by an ADHD 9 year old. Dont want to reduce the dose if its not the tablets and just me being a bad tempered old bat, the headaches stopped yesterday and my neck hurts when I put it back probably due to the fact it was a knock to the top of the head that I took! I do probably have a concussion but I cant get anyone to look after the kids if the dr wanted to do an xray or ct scan and I havent been getting any worse

Jody, don't do anything until you've seen the doctor. A bash on the head is likely to make anyone feel bad tempered.

I suppose if you stop taking Levo for a couple of weeks and your temper goes ,although you will probably feel worse, you will know it's the tablets and it may be a change of brand is required with different fillers etc.But do nothing until your head injury is checked.
