Hello, Connie! How are you?
It can take a week or so, before you start to feel the effects of your dose being lowered, so that can be normal. As listed by the FDA, you may also experience nausea, dizziness and headache.
Is there anything else I can help with?

Just reduced my thyroid medication after 5 years of being over medicated for treatment after papillary thyroid cancer. I have no thyroid now. After 10 days on reduced thyroxin dose I feel very lightheaded and have done for four days now. Is this part of withdrawal and will it stop?
