Mattrazzom, it sounds as if you might be over medicated. But we need more information please before we can make any useful comments. What medications are you taking and what dose?

yes, RedApple I agree, we need more information. I strongly suspect that you have started on too high a dose too quickly and your blood sugar and blood pressure may be playing up and giving you all these symptoms. However, it could possibly be that as your metabolism was being slowed down by thyroid issues, you now have a metabolism which works and your body is way too over excited by it. If we knew more, you could get help here. Can you ask for a fasting blood sugar and get your blood pressure checked, if these haven't already been checked. The reason I'm asking for this is because I am now properly medicated for T3 and I have gone from hypoglycemic to hyperglycemic with consequent blood pressure issues - I cut out processed sugar from my diet and feel one hundred times better without having to compromise my newly high metabolism by reducing NDT and making myself slow again.

Hi we require more information please before giving helpful answers. More details on your medication and how long you have been taking it. Have you any blood test results?

More info is required to help you I'm afraid as there could be any number of reasons for you feeling this way. For instance have you changed your brand of medication recently? I had a similar reaction to the fillers in a different brand of tablet.
