Weakness and shakey.

I'm feeling very weak and shakey after any form of exercise even walking.

Blood sugar levels? Get it checked out to avoid Diabetes undiagnosed. Lack of carbs? Protein? Consider your diet too.

Hi Fion

Can you get a copy of your latest thyroid blood test results from your surgery and post again so that someone will comment. Please also put the ranges (the figures in brackets).

I would get this when out walking my dogs, it would come on suddenly and it meant I would need to stop and rest and walk very very slowly, my arms, legs and even head would feel like lead, I'd feel drunk or like I was going to pass out, shaky, hard to catch my breath, sweaty hot but like internal heat rising.

I thought it was blood sugar, so started eating every 2 hours, but also I had tests and my Iron was low (plus B12,,D3) so started taking Iron and I stopped having these episodes after about a week of the changes.

Apparently, storing glycogen in the muscles and liver becomes a problem with hypothyroidism. Eat more simple sugars (fructose in fruit) to help stimulate your energy flow and eat little and often (five or six times a day.). It sounds like you may have run out of energy after you r exercise. Try eating something before you excercise to avoid that 'dip'.
