I have been on Levoxyl for about 13 years now I am 26. Last year I started experiencing joint pain and was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. Lately I have been having dizzy spells where I get hot and feel like I need to sit down before I pass out. Also experiencing extreme fatigue off and on for about 5 years. Now after reading this I am wondering if all this is related to the Levoxyl. I am wondering if people who have been on the med awhile started noticing side effects years into their treatment as I don't remember these symptoms when I first started the med. Also what are other options prescription wise. After seeing this site I am going to go see an endocrinologist and discuss all this with them.

I also have very dry eyes since on Levoxyl. I experience a lot of problems in my sinus area too since having the radiation treatment (pill) done for Grave's Disease that wouldn't respond to meds........I wonder if it is all related. What do you do for your dry eyes? I've tried all sorts of drops, including steroid and others from my eye doctor but nothing helps for very long. fossil
