Speaking from my own experience, it could be low zinc. That gave me terrible muscle pain. Ask them to test it when they take the blood.

Definitely suffer this stuff. It’s my big hypothyroid thing! Interesting about zinc. I take it only sporadically with Selenium which I don’t think has made any particular difference. However I probably should give it ago. I spent a short moment on T3 which was really helpful but I have had to stop it at least temporarily until I feel steadier in the meds and supplementation I am already on. From other forumites, I have learned that even if you are on T3 it takes long periods of slow improvement. So whatever you are taking may need time, if nothing else.

Yes, im taking everything low and slow, feel much better with taking t3 and of recently increased my levo. but occasional symptoms they come and go. Its a long journey🌸🌸🌸

It’s seems to be a much longer journey than any of us want.

Yes, you are quite right. What helps me when I have a not so good day is, if it wasnt for this forum I would be in a totally different and not so good place. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
