I thought my fatigue and mild depression symptoms were something separate but after reading these posts, it sounds like they could be linked to taking Synthroid? I've been on it for 2 years now. At first, I felt great. I started feeling tired again & my dr. upped the dosage. I just saw him today & complained of feeling tired, depressed, and getting light-headed and off balance at times. He wrote me a Rx for anti-depressants and changed my blood pressure Rx. I'm thinking about trying a Naturopathic Dr. to see if I can get the results I need without all the side affects. It couldn't hurt to get another opinion.

it really sounds like you just need to adjust your thyroid meds. unfortunatly this is a trial and error process that could take time

Just take care of antidepressants and blood pressure medicines you are taking along with synthroid. Some combination's will increase the intensity of side effects. Look at the medications that you shouldn't have with synthroid. http://www.internationaldrugmart.com/synthroid.html
