REPORT

I had taken levothyroxine for a number of years with no apparent side effects. Then I began to experience tingling in my legs and subsequently throughout my body even in my tongue and face? I was tested for various conditions - even for MS. Nothing was apparent. Trying to trace back when the tingling first occurred, I realised it was when I went to an alternative chemist who prescribed a different brand. Returning to original chemist and brand I have found that tingling has almost ceased.

This is not a known side effect of the drug, however, I would stop using it for a day or two to see if that changes anything.
I would also consult with my dentist to see if anything unusual was going on with my teeth.
Hope you feel better!
