Experiences with Levothyroxine

Hashimoto's disease very difficult to balance until September 2016. Levothyrox 100 old formula. I have always been mild hypothyroidism under treatment because I do not support the increase in LEVO that would be necessary for me to be euthyroïdienne. Since the new formula, last May, I took 10 kilos in addition to the 35 taken since the onset of the disease and never lost. I'm 95 kilos for 1 m 50...

The dosage is stabilised at 125 from 2002. No worries, a blood test a year, no side effect. But since May, when the pharmacy provided me with the Levothyrox "just in its new box" muscle aches instead of stabilizing go crescendo, heart palpitations are accentuated... what solution?

I'd like to bring my testimony. I was removed from the thyroid more than 9 years ago because of a 7-MMS capillary carcinoma. Note that now, the medical recommendations are not to remove a papillary carcinoma of less than 15 mms (and the thyroid that goes with), but at the time, I had beautiful ask for an annual surveillance of this carcinoma (perhaps it would not swell?) Before initiating th...

I'm exhausted!!!

I've been in hypothyroidism for 13 years (auto-immune disease that attacks my thyroid). Over the years, the doctor had to increase the doses of Levothyrox to have a TSH roughly in the norm. Since March, at 175 ug, my rate was OK, but I had palpitations, a very fast pulse and felt nervous fatigue with difficulty in falling asleep. I went down to 150 ug in May; The palpitations have disappeared b...

Since 2002, we had had a lot of difficulty finding the right dosage and then for two years everything was fine until the Merx Labs decided to change the manufacture of the Lévothyrox. At first I did not feel anything special and I surprised even that for an excipient we talk to be careful. But about four months ago I take this new formula whereas for three to four weeks I see the appearance o...

Good evening, since September 2008, after a total ablation of the thyroid, following nodules, I have never had a problem with the Levothyrox 75.

Fatigue, a zero morale and a weight gain led me to do a TSH check that went from 0.67 in April to 3.56 in 3 and a half months. With a 6 kg socket at the same time without changing the power supply. I lost 10 kg last year with a one-month hospitalization in a clinic. All of this has been wiped out because of a drug. While since the Thyroidectomie, 10 years ago, everything was fine with 6 days at...

Nothing goes wrong with this new drug. I think I will stop it even if it is dangerous. It is even more dangerous to continue taking it. Anyway, the damage is done, the old one will never come back. It's so easy to make people suffer. Shame on you.

Hyperthyroidism after taking the new formula whereas before the dosages were good ((T4 = 35.29 pmol/L and TSH = 0, 02mUi/L) I read this recently: for the authorities and Merck laboratories, more than a side effect of the new compounds, the cause of Reported side effects is probably related to anxiety, which is found in a large number of patients with thyroid disorders.

I had a Hemi Thyroidectomie in 1984 and the remaining lobe worked fine so I did not continue the Lévothyrox until I was discovered in 1997 of the nodules on the second lobe. The decision of ablation and the result of pathology being satisfactory so I had again a treatment by levothyrox until today. I moved a lot, settling in turn to the mountains, to the sea and I noticed variations in my TSH r...

I take lévotyrox for 23 years without any particular problem, since the new formula is the horror: very disturbed intestine, terrible tummy aches, very high fatigue, nausea, back pain, disturbed sleep, chest pain, itching time to other.

After 4 blood shots, an emergency hospitalization, the doctor thinking of a pulmonary embolism sent me to the cardiologist, to scan the lungs, result: nothing! Stop the stamp and replace with drops and I resume life for 3 days, thanks ANSM, still a scandal as with the mediator. I have dizziness, general fatigue, more breath, insomnia, loss of appetite, syncope, a fall of the hair.
