Migraines and vizual changes from T3

[Annedi]

Hi! I have been on hormonal treatment for thyroid which has been surgically removed since 2003. I was on levo only and had muscular and back pain, numbness in my feet. In 2007 I switch to Novothyral (T4+T3) and I was anxiuos and it felt very hot. Tje doctor put me back on levothyroxine for mamy years. I ended up not being able to function because of myscular pain amd numbness. So I tried again Novothyraland as soon as I took the pill a migrain started. I ordered NDT and strated gradually in march this year. From the first day I had visual changes, my eyes become very sensitive and I got migraines very often. It's not that often and intense as it is on Novothyral, but it is very hard to keep taking it. On NDT there is less pain in my muscles, but what do I do with these migraines. If I increase the dose it's worse. If I take less migraines become more rare. Please, help me with some advice. Is there anyone having these symptoms?

Have you tested vitamin D, folate, B12 and ferritin recently?

Add results and ranges if you have any

What supplements do you currently take?

My endo told me to ask GP for painkiller if the T3 = headaches, so I guess this is common.
