Hi Paul1978

There is no history on your profile, so it makes it hard for members to give advice.

You haven’t said what dosage of Levothyroxine you are on, or how long you have been taking it.

It takes time for Levothyroxine to start working and it all depends on the dosage amount.

Best Wishes

In what way do you feel "worse".

Have you changed brand?

What brand are you taking?

Have you tried taking it at bedtime?
