Levothyroxine (125ug) for hypothyroidism

I have been suffering from Hashimoto's hypothyroidism since I was 10 years old. After 28 years of treatment, I thought I'd seen it all. At first, everything went well with the Levothyrox and then towards 2003 the formula changed, the colored tablets became white and filled with lactose. The problems started, especially muscular. In 2008, I found myself in disability with excruciating and chronic headaches. After an addition of T3 with the Cynomel, two years ago, I was better. I do not convert T4 processing to T3 and therefore I am in hypothyroidism despite the treatments. With the Cynomel, I was going much better and I relived until April 2017 and the new formula of Levothyrox...: Chronic headaches, sleep very difficult (hard to fall asleep and then I wake up all the time), heartburn, cramps Bowels, muscles that get tétanisent, cramps,... Before this change of formula, I had none of these symptoms! Exhausted, I stopped it and I took back an old box that I had left, in a few days everything disappeared. We need a good treatment!! And, if it is to remove the lactose, gentlemen of the labs, forget mannitol and take back your old formula of the colored tablets... ha yes it costs you a little more and we are only 3 million to beg you to have quality of life.
