Why did you stop taking your Levo? This is why you are tired all the time and sleepy. You are hypothyroid but not being treated. You need to start taking your thyroid meds again.

My Dr won't presribe me any until I come in to see him again... What else could happen. If I wait longer? Coma?? Joints??
