Low thyroid is one of the causes of lack of libido. 88 mcg is still more or less a starter dose. You can't expect it to do much for you.

I just talked to a pharmacist and she asked if I had cold fingers and I said yes they're so cold they feel numb it's a horrible feeling she says it sounds like you're low

And, it wouldn't be surprising if you were low on such a stupid dose! She should have put you up to 100, I dread to think what her idea of normal is! Have you already posted your results?

Ask your GP to test your prolactin levels, when you go to get your meds increased.
