Have you had thyroid and vitamin levels retested yet

As per previous post…..

healthunlocked.com/thyroidu....

100mcg levothyroxine…isn’t a high dose

Approx how much do you weigh

Do you always get same brand levothyroxine at each prescription

Please add most recent results and ranges

Just testing TSH is inadequate. You need Ft4 and Ft3 tested and all four vitamins

How much vitamin D are you currently taking

What was most recent vitamin D result

For me yes. Undiagnosed hypothyroidism for many years. My muscles have been stressed from 2007 noticeably and in turn their weakness is now affecting my joints. Knees and shoulders in particular. Still hoping for improvement when dosages are optimum. Not there yet.

When the weather is bad yes, and I always know when rain is on the way. Low pressure head as well, not so much achy as a tight heavy feeling.
