Good and bad days

hi all. So I’ve been on an increased dose for 3 weeks and 2 days (from 75 to 100 of levo)

Yesterday was the first time I had a SLIGHT glimmer of hope in feeling normal, it didn’t last long lol but I felt ok all day better than normal. However today I’ve gone back to feeling like crap again. Is it normal to have good and bad days after recently increasing a dose? I understand it’s early days and improvements might take longer to feel. X

I’ve certainly been through something similar and can sympathise.

I’d say it takes around 6 weeks for the full effect of a dose change so you’re getting there. Hopefully you’ll have more “better” days before long.

You feel a bit better …..start being a bit more active…..then run out of energy

Good to hear improvements are starting…….
