I would get a second opinion on the Levothyroxine Sodium. I take it (125
mcg), but that's because I had half my thyroid removed about 19 years ago due
to
a benign nodule on it. Incidentally, I had a horrible digestive reaction to
the generic, which I think this is, vs. the name brand Synthroid. One astute
doctor asked me if I had any changes in prescriptions when I was having these
symptoms, and I almost said no, when I realized I had started this new
generic. I had been taking Synthroid for years with no problems, even the
generic
kind, but when I compared the dates, my digestive symptoms started when I
started this version, We switched to the name brand, and then I was fine. Lots
of
people use it with no problems, but my body chemistry just didn't mesh with
it.
I think what he prescribed is a low dosage (Frank, correct me if I am wrong
on that), so you could try it and see what happens.
