I take 100mg throxine one day then 150mg the next. I have had terrible headaches for the past 3 months. I wake up with headaches everyday. sometimes finding it hard to even lift my head up. They can last for hours.Is this a common side effect?

Yes, headaches can be a normal side effect of this medication and they may be aggravated by your daily dosage adjustments.

Have you talked to your doctor about them?

You may need further dosage adjustments, or to try something to treat or prevent the headaches.

There is also a chance that they may be unrelated to the medication, but only your doctor can help you find out for sure.
