I've been on levothyroxine for 3 months now. I have anxiety at night while trying to fall asleep. In the morning my hands feel so tight and are a bit swollen. My right knee and calf have started now too. My feet hurt when I get out of bed. After about 10 mins of walking they feel better. My face is also a bit puffy in the morning and I look tired all the time. I have pains on the right side of abdoman, just under my ribs....Is this normal? Could it be my liver from the meds?

I too have been on this levothyroxine for 4 months and am miserable. I feel worse now that i have had a total thyroidectomey due to thyroid tumors. I am so weak. Anxiety rules my days, body is so swollen with water retention and have mild depression. Dry skin, i do feel bad on my right side also. ????? Just wanted to let you know you are not alone. it made me feel better to just read this. I know i am not alone either. THANKS

Do you ever experience twitching???especially at night when you lay down?? Or sensitivity in your skin?,,.to certain textures which sometimes make you feel like somethings crawling on it??
