Does anyone take Synthroid? What have you experienced in the way of side effects!


Question:

Does anyone take Synthroid? What have you experienced in the way of side effects and do they get better?

do the side effects get better with time? I thought this medication would help with regulating body temp and would help with the "feeling hot and sweaty" it seems to make it worse?


Answers:

If you are having weird symptoms, you need to tell your Doctor.

Synthyroid is to help your thyroid. I've never heard of body temp. and feeling hot and sweaty. Was your thyroid checked before the prescription was given? It's a simple blood test. My DH has taken synthyroid for 12 years now and that has never been a symptom. If they test his blood and up his prescription, it might cause heart palpatations and this is a sign that he is getting to much. If they give too little he becomes sleepy and lithargic. The same happens to me but I take another type called Amour, it's a natural thyroid med. Maybe in the long run you are having problems with Synthyroid and need Armour, instead. Don't take my advice talk to a certified endocrinologist.
