I've been on thyroid medicine since I was 10, so about 12 years now. I started on Amour medicine and recently my doctor switched me to Levoxly which is the generic for Synthroid. And ever seen I started this medicine I was felt like crap. My hair is falling out uncontrollably, when I wash it, brush it, or just pull at it. My hands and feet fall asleep all the time. I'm still young and my body aches. I've experienced loss of libido and just in general I feel sick.

I have been taking Levoxyl for about 2 months now. I have never felt like this before, EVER. I have experienced severe depression, emotional chaos, loss of libido, and weight gain (despite every diet and weight-loss gimick). I had no idea that this drug could have such side effects. I had been taking Synthroid; however, it was just as bad. I need some suggestions as to what medication I need to try because this just isn't working. Please email me at ****** with any suggestions, or similar experiences. Thank you.
