I've been on synthroid since October 1996. My ankles are always swollen. That didn't start til I started the medication. My Endocrinologist keeps telling me that it has nothing to do with the meds. My TSH levels are constantly being taken. He says to cut down on salt. I don't eat much salt and besides, I know people that practically eat whole pigs and they don't have swollen ankles. Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions, I'm desperate!!!

Not only swollen ankles, but now swollen legs. My the end of the day I have to prop my feet well over my head for 30-45 minutes to get the swelling to go down. I've mentioned it to my MD and he just looks at me like I'm crazy. Also, bloating throughout the month, not related to my cycle. I did have increased hair loss when I first started synthroid, but that has stopped. Heaven help us all - seems like the "cure" is as bad as the problem.
