Are you on cholesterol drugs...this sounds more like a side effect of the statin drugs to lower cholesterol. I have been taking synthroid for 10 years and have not had this symptom.
I have also been on simvastatin fo a long time now and went off it do to kidney problems thats what iwas told by the dr.
Are you on any other medications? When is the last time your levels were checked?
The FDA does list muscle cramping, and weakness as being among the possible side effects of Synthroid, as well as mood changes, weight changes, and hair loss.
