started eltroxin 4 days ago

was on liquid

im being prescribed 150mcg as when i seen endo i was on 7ml of liquid but started feeling off so lowered to 6ml so taking 125 eltroxin

could it be the change over from liquid to tablet

my legs hurt like ive given them a work out i ache all over my neck aches, one minute im warm and the next i freezing

should i increase to 150 or hold on and see what happens?

i also have a gum infection and on antibiotics but that dont explain the aches

Mandy72,

Antibiotics can affect absorption of Levothyroxine and if they've reduce absorption that would explain the aches. I hope you're feeling better now.
