I HAVE BEEN ON SYNTHROID FOR A FEW YEARS NOW. MY HAIR CONTINUES TO FALL OUT AND ALWAYS CLOGGING THE DRAIN UP. MY HANDS STAY NUMB AND I AM GETTING FATTER THAN I WOULD EVER EXPECTED TO BE. I HAVE GAINED OVER 100+POUNDS. I WANT TO GET THE GOITER REMOVED BUT THE DOCTOR SAYS NOT NOW. MY DOCTOR SAYS I AM GOING TO BE ON THIS MEDICATION FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. WHY?
SICK OF THE MEDICATION, ANGIE FORM GEORGIA

Everything everyone else said.
Got it 3 years ago. Within 2 months, went from 130lbs to about 155... break out all the time... mid-section weight where I never had it before.
By the time I figured out what it was - went to the doctor, and it's "stuck". Has grown quite attached to my uterus, I guess and after MUCH pain and an ultrasound, the doc says I need surgery to get it out.
The good side: very light periods. And... I'm not pregnant, but hey! What birthcontrol could be better than having a bunch of zits and getting fatter?? What's next? Are my teeth going to fall out, too????
Wasn't worth it. When this comes out, going back on Alesse birth control. I was thin and zit free...
