Synthroid and dizziness

I have been on Synth since june of last year and have steadily gained weight to the tune of 22 lb! Most of my symptoms ( Fatigue, joint pain, dizziness, foggy thinking) have gone away, but the heavy ever lasting periods are still here, as is my extremely terrible acne and the numbness in my hands.Also have daily headaches that never subside. I just went off the synthroid all together yesterday and am hoping that I start to lose this weight. I have been diagnosed with asthma and am now on Advair, so I am hoping that it will make me feel better, maybe all of my symptoms were related to lack of oxygen! Cross your fingers that all of the bad symptoms don't return, I will post back when I notice a difference, either way.

I love that you all have the courage to post here. We must self diagnose, most dr's don't care, we are but numbers to them

Thanks to all

hello everyone
i am a full time college student and I believe that i have some side effects from synthroid. As i was reading everyones blog i notice that some people feel the same way that i do. At times i feel that i'm normal but if something upsetting happens i get really tired, depress, and I have a never time concentrating at school and home. My body hurts all the time. especially my joints and i feel that i don't want to do anything. I have about a year left until i graduate and its the going to be hard. I cry sometimes for no reason. help! i'm going to talk to my doctor but if any body else feels the same way please reply.

I've been on Synthroid for almost a year now, and I feel great. I was feeling so bad before, I had constant painful headaches, fatigue, nausea, dizziness, body aches it was horrible. Once I started the med I felt 100% better after a few days. However, if I miss a days dose or two I get my symptoms back full force.

I have been on Levothyroxene for 14 months now. I have been experiencing nightmares, a "butterfly" feeling between my chest and stomach, itchy skin, dizziness, and am still fatigued. My dose is 50mcg. once a day. that was upped from 25 mcg. a day as my TSH level was not within the normal range. Sometimes I feel like I'm feeling WORSE after being put on Levothyroxene. I also am still gaining weight and am constantly bloated, having bouts of diarrhea, and my blood pressure won't stay regulated. I am currently recuperating from a bad cold and the cough is hanging on. My other meds I take are Atenolol-12.5 mg. once a day and Xanax-.25 mg. two to three times a day. Is there an interaction between all these meds(I take them at different intervals thruout the day to avoid interactions)?
