Hi there, I am reading all these postings and I'm here to say, "I survived Synth". I have been off for 15 days now and went the homeopathic route. My levels were always on the higher end even with 100mcg. They never really balanced out. I was so sick of vertigo, brain fog, and the WEIGHT GAIN. I stopped September 15. I will continue to have labs run just for piece of mind, but a major upswing for me......nine pounds have come off and I know I will go back to my ORIGINAL WEIGHT. I feel for all who are dealing with these side affects, it's not right. No more. I'm done.

I'm new to taking Synthroid, started in April 2008 and I thought it would help control my weight, but I have had steady weight gain since then, about 2 pounds a month and I exercise a lot. What alternatives are there?

I was wondering what you did to help with weight loss? I'm considering stopping synthroid and going a natural route too. What's your secret? What have you been doing? My email is mrpmusic@gmail.com if you'd like to contact me directly. Thank you so much! Hope you can give me some advice!

What natural remedies/supplements did you use. I have been on Synthroid for almost 3 years and have gained over 60 lbs!!!! I was a good weight before. It never occured to me that it could be the problem.
