I feel miserable. I’ve taken Synthroid since 2004, after undergoing radiation. My dose has uncreased from 88 mcg to 125 mcg over time, yet my symptoms still exist.
~severe joint pain
~ hair loss
~ constant hunger, I eat dinner at 10 pm and wake up in the middle of the night, so hungry that I can’t sleep. I feel no hunger pains when I stopped taking Synthroid
~ Can’t lose weight
~ Ringing in ears, constantly althought it’s not too noticeable during the day
~ Strangely enough, my eyesight has improved greatly
~Tiredness, I could sleep 12 or 14 hours a day, every day
~ Depression/mood swings
~ I’m constantly cold – I’m sitting at work right now with a hooded sweater and my hands still feel like ice
~ semi-frequent UTI’s
~ High cholesterol, both good and bad
~ Increased (slight) BP
~Frequent migraines, sometimes daily
~ Increasing sugar levels
Has anyone seen an improvement in their symptoms when switching? I see my doc tomorrow & wanted some more info.
