Levoxyl and sex drive

I'm on 50mg of Levoxyl I'm 42. I have experienced major gas and heartburn. I have no sex drive anymore and just feel like I'm in a box and can't get out. I thought by seeing a specialist it would help. I just don't know anymore. I told my doctor about my side effects and he said this medication has no side effects. Hmmm after reading all this I am printing and giving it to him. Anyone feel the same. Especially the gas and heartburn?

I have hashimotos thyroid syndrome andi have been on Levoxyl for about 5 years, now the medication is .088 mg's. I do not get anxiety depression. i really wouldn't know what normal is because im only 19 and iv been diagnosed for so long. My sex drive is completely there, the only thing that is wrong is that i CAN NOT wake up in the morning. i must find out what will happen if i get off levoxyl to go to the coast guard. please let me know.

Levoxyl has taken my coldness and lack of energy away. However, I haven't lost weight, my carpal tunnel has worsen, and I lost my sex drive.

Can anyone suggest other drugs?

I'm 26 and was diagnosed with HYPOTHYROIDISM in Oct 2005. I was put on LEVOTHYROXINE. At firt I felt sick to my stomach, and then started having really bad head akes. My MD lowered my dose and I felt like a new person. Had more energy than my 4 year old. I have had some site effects such as HEART PALPITATIONS, MILD DEPRESSION, UNABLE TO CONCENTRATE, FATIGUE AND SPACED OUT FEELINGS! But the one site effect that I have not seen anyone talk about is "RINGING OF THE EARS!!!!!!" PLEASE IF ANY ONE IS HAVE THE RINGING OF THE EARS...LET ME KNOW, IT IS DRIVING MY @&*!%#^ CRAZY. My MD says its ANXIETY! Give me a break pal, I know my body good enough to know when im NOT anxious. Also my sex drive is flat lined. Please email me if you have these same site effects.. Bless you all

I've been on Levothyroxine for years, and recently my fingers on my left hand tingle,are numb, I can't FEEL with them. So after complaining to my doctor, he shoots some cortisone in my wrist telling me it's carpal tunnel. Carpal tunnel, my butt!! I don't know what made me do it, but somehow I got to this site. I've been on antideppressants for years cause I'm tired, fatigued, then on valium so I can sleep,
I can't concentrate at all, my memory is GONE....
I called him this afternoon and said I wanted to go on Armour
Thyroid. His nurse tells me that he says " We'll address that when he sees me in April". %#@* that, I'll be 400 lbs by April!! My sex drive is nonexistant, and I'm a freakin' couch potato when I used to go to the gym, go out with friends, DO THINGS!! Now I'm lucky if I make it through work. ENOUGH DRUGS... I'm goin' off everything and starting over. I'll get up the money and see an endocrinologist. I'm through being a drug reps dream....

I have a pitutary brian tumor and I have been taking Levothroxine for about 7 years and I need to know what happen if you quit taking this pill? I have been thinking about it, to see if I feel like my old self again. I am only 38 and I have extreme about of hair loss, hungry all the time, dry skin, no sex drive, no memory, the shakes, weight gain and can't lose any. I have been the same weight since the removal of the tumor. Ihaven't lose a pound and haven't gain a pound but I sick of being fat and can't lose a pound. No matter what I do. And I am always tired . I sleep about 90% of a day. I am to young to feel this way everyday. I feel they should of left the tumor in there so I could of still been myself for a little longer. Than to live like this each day. I just want to know what will happen if I quit taking this Levothyroxine?
Let me know, please. Thanks!

I have been taking Levoxyl now for about 6 months, 75mcg and have developed pain in my hands and hips, I have also lost most of my sex drive and find it extremely frustrating at best. I plan to stop this medication and determine if the side effects are coming from this product. I was told I would feel much better with more "pep" and all I feel is tired and in pain.
