I’m tired and weepy and have put on so much weight I feel like I’ve been on 125mg of leveroxine for years ( I had my thyroid removed in 2005) due to Graves’ disease

But I stupidly thought doctors know best I t to take vit D and B12 trying to feel better but the exhaustion continues the doctor put me on antidepressants as I said I was low and weepy but I think this is all connected to my thyroid, I really don’t know anything about T3 and 4 and need to research more

I self medicated and upped my dose to 150 but it’s not made a difference

I’m interested in doing a blood test and posting my results but would like advice on how to go about this please .🙏🏼
