Whey heyyyyyyy I donā€™t have lupus. And Iā€™m actually feeling much better last few days. Im sure itā€™s cos I upped my levy dose to 100 from the 87mcg stupid doctor had me on. Nice to be on an up. Hope your all ok?

Thank you spare rib, but it didnā€™t last I suddenly became extremely fatigued all the time, like I couldnā€™t climb the stairs or even brush my hair without it wiping me out. Was also experiencing bad anxiety and crazy mad stress moments that lasted hours. I figured this tablet this levyothyroxine was the culprit again, so I took 3 25mcg tabs then cut 1 in half and took that I immediately felt better, however remembering how low I got on 87mcg before, the next day I took another 1/4 tab on top of that so bit more than 87, yet just under the 100mcg. Well fingers x that dose seems to be keeping me on a level. Iā€™m not getting the crazy anxiety nor am I extremely fatigued. Tho if I do too much I get very very tired, and like last 2 days have spent mostly sleeping. Itā€™s a hard road but one we can manage if we listen to our body (and not the docs) and be kind to ourselves. We have to adjust post thyroidectomy and thatā€™s it. But itā€™s not as bad as it could be. And every day I am very grateful for my blessings. And you for being there. Bless you. And thank you šŸ™šŸ½ šŸ˜Š X

Itā€™s crazy how medication can work one day and not the next. Thatā€™s my current battle. Iā€™ve tried Armour, Levothyroxine plus Cytomel, and now on Tirosint (day 2). They all seem to work the first 1-2 days and then it goes downhill. Iā€™m at a loss right now.
