Hi i have been on synthriod for 10 years now and until 2006 i started having serious surges in my heart rate as well as my hair constantly falling out. i have been to my (endo) doctor so much about all these problems all the tsh test and blood work are fine and normal he says, but you know I really wonder had i not ever gone on this synthroid in the first place would my body be doing this. the papitations i get are so bad, and worse when i eat and settle down in the evening. nobody knows or understands me, but you all who post on this forum because you are all going threw the same thing too.
