[QUOTE="nlj, post: 682264, member: 17650"] I have Hashimoto's disease. It takes a while to get the dose right. Your body takes about 6 weeks to respond to new thyroid medication or a change in dose. You should get a new blood test after 6 weeks and see what your TSH level says. If you've only just started taking this then I don't think it would act that fast but I could be wrong of course. How long have you been taking it? Thyroid imbalance causes so many side-effects. I'd recommend reading a good book and taking control away from your doctor. It's your thyroid and you know your body best. Find a good doctor you trust and who listens to your input. Then you need patience to try a few things until you find what suits you. It took a couple of years for me to feel properly well and my dose still gets adjusted yearly. [/QUOTE]
