Spot Problem

Has anyone, whilst increasing their doseage of Levo, had terrible problems with their skin and specifically spots/acne? My skin is worse now than when I was a teenager!

Can anyone please offer help as to what could be causing this as its beginning to get me down.

Thanks

Gail

I have always had spots but im in my 30's now and while i was on levo they were worse. I am on t3 only now and my skin is still bad. Im hoping it will clear when im back to normal health. I hate my skin and i have become so self concious, it definitly got worse after starting levo for me. X
