Firstly I would rule out an allergy to the fillers. Take an antihistamine one hour before your thyroid meds and see if it stops ( the itching). If that is the case ask your pharmacist to suggest a different brand as they all seem to have a different combination of fillers so may have to try more than one then when happy get that one put on your prescription

The tingling etc could be down to low B12 so get B12, Vit D, folate and ferritin tested. Results need to be optimal so post for comments. These help your thyroid and also good for general health.
