Hi I have severe lower-back cramps and ache going all he way up to my shoulder blades.
I guess its from the Euthyrox 25micro grams(Livothyroxine sodium) which I am taking now for over a week.
I was diagnosed for hypothyroidism and my T3, T4 levels were marginally high so my practitioner started me on the lowest dose.
But this side effect is quite disturbing and need to get rid of this to handle the work pressure in the office.
thanks

Hi everyone, I have been taking omeprazole for eight years. The past year my amount was increast to 40mg from 20mg. My very first side effect was itching all over but most of all around the rectum. i have had pains in my chest.Had camera put down behind my heart had all clear. I have high pulse rate been admitted to hospital when it reached 150 a min.Still suffer from this. Tinging in hands, whole left leg tingles when I touch my leg to moisturize it has a pins and needle effect. Had brain scan for blurred vision. Have diarrhea most days.Get dehydrated because of this I am for ever drinking. My muscle cramps are so bad I cannot do baking any more. Cramps in my legs and feet.I have bad fatigue.I am not interested in sex.My whole life has changed completely over a gradule process. I thought it was down to my age 61.My e.s.r.blood rate is raised I have had every test available I have taken steroids to lower it.It worked at first but then graduly went back up even being on steroids made no difference.
