Palpitations are a not uncommon symptom of being hypo. 50mcgs is just a starter dose.
Your TSH on previous and current dose is too high. People generally feel well with a TSH at or just under 1.
If you experience palpitations again I would recommend increasing your dose next time. You now need to go back to 75mcgs and retest in 6-8 weeks.
What were your latest vitamin blood results?
When hypo we get low stomach acid which means we cannot absorb vitamins well from our food, regardless of a great diet. For thyroid hormone to work well we need OPTIMAL levels of vitamins. Have you recently or could you ask your GP to test levels of ferritin, folate, B12 & D3? Private tests are available, see link for companies offering private blood tests & discount codes, some offer a blood draw service at an extra cost. thyroiduk.org/help-and-supp...
Do you always get the same brand at each prescription?
What were recent vitamin D, folate, ferritin and B12 results
Palpitations can be low iron/ferritin…..extremely common to have low vitamin levels when under medicated as you were in March and now increasingly hypothyroid
Increase back to 75mcg ….retest in 6-8 weeks
Likely to need further increases over coming months
