Hi, I was on 300mg of levothyroxine and been reduced to 200 over last couple of months, and putting weight on rapidly I'm 5'8" and now weigh 99kg I'm so fed up, I walk at least 15000 steps a day and eat healthily I'm at the end of my tether. Having been 70kg I am so uncomfortable and low and not by choice! The weight is a huge issue for me but also my skin is dry my eyes are' funny' I'm cold and have no appetite. Anyone have any advice? I'm going for blood test today.

Loamie,

When you get your results post them in a new question with the ranges (the figures in brackets after your results) and members will advise.

Not what you're looking for?
