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?
