I've noticed since taking this medication I am experiencing indigestion and more frequent bowel movements...anyone else

Can you provide some more information, please?

Which medication(s) and why you are taking it/them?

TSH was 8.10 so my doctor prescribed Levothyroxine..sorry not sure mg...They said indigestion is not usual side symptom but he called me in something that I will take with levo...my ANA was abnormal but negative for lupus and scoliosis. I see an arthritis next week but really no symptoms for that other than maybe slight enlargement of knuckles but I've gained 4lbs over the past year even while walking 2miles 3-4 days per week and eating a healthy diet

TSH of 8.10 is pretty definitive as diagnosis.

Members have a variety of experiences and sometimes it depends on make.

Do let us know where you are and what make you are getting - and what dose!
