Hi, i have been taking Levothyroxine for 10 years now, and at the moment i have been prescribed 100. Four months ago I start having horrible panic attacks and my anxiety have increased since. I went to a private doctor and she stated that everything is happening to me is because of the Levothyroxine and i should change to natural. I am not sure what to do , i just really want to feel good without this horrible anxiety!!!!!!!!!!! What i should do?????

Hi, My mum has been on levothyroxine for about 1 year and has recently suffered a massive dip in her health. She is 69 and was very healthy, she could regularly have the grand kids who are very lively but now she can't. It started a couple of months ago with her starting to feel more tired than usual - this was after being on the drug for 6-9 months. The she started having panic atticks and now she is on anti anxiety pills and has lost all confidence. Is there an alternative to levothyroxine?
