Hello, Beth! How are you feeling? Sorry about the issues that you're having.

Being tired and sick are things that almost everyone with a thyroid issue goes through for awhile, it does play a major role in the proper regulation of our bodies. The medication being added also disrupts things for awhile and can add to the issues, until things start to balance out in your body.

Learn more Levothyroxine details here.

But things will start to improve, as your body gets used to the medication and things settle down.

When will you be seeing your doctor, again?
