Hypothyrodism what are your symptoms?

[loveyoutothemoon]

Can anyone please share their symptoms?

My symptoms were headaches, dizziness/vertigo, feeling like cold water being poured over my head, dark vision, tingling hands and feet, severe anxiety and feeling spaced out

To cut a long story short I found it difficult to get a diagnosis in spite of a high Tsh (18.0) as ft3 and ft4 were just in range although right at the bottom. I didn't do well on thyroxine and switched to Armour which I had major problems with when I tried to increase the dose even though I was majorly hypo by then (Tsh 59.0 and below range ft3 and ft4).

Eventually I got to 2.25 grains and have been on that dose and stable without any symptoms for nearly 2 years

Hope you get some help soon.

Flippin heck! Glad you're finally sorted. Thank you so much. So looks like I'll have to put up with it?!

NO don't put up with it. TUK can help you like they did me!

Thanks. Sorry what is TUK? All I've come up with on google is shoes and cars!!

Oh Thyroid UK?!

How did they help you?

They interpreted my test results and advised on doctors/medication etc. when I was having trouble raising my armour dosage they suggested different things to try. I will always be indebted to them, especially the amazing admins

That's great :)
How long did it take the doc to give you medication after seeing that your levels were just in range? Sorry for all the questions.
