Symptoms Suddenly Getting Worse?!
Posted on: March 22, 2006 | Posted in: My Story
Well hell. I am not a happy camper this week. I was really hoping my .15mg levothyroxin dose would keep working for a long time, and I could convince my doc to write an Armour prescription for me this week. But now it looks like I’m going to need a higher dose. And then I’ll have to wait until the new dose is apparently “working” to my Dr’s satisfaction. And then maybe I’ll get to lobby for a trial run on Armour again.
Because my symptoms are suddenly coming back. With a vengeance. Just this week, I noticed my feet swelling up again. Then I noticed my leg muscles were feeling achy, and starting to cramp up for no reason again. My short term memory has gone AWOL again… and today when I woke up (after sleeping longer than I have in months), I felt exhausted. The only major thing I have not noticed is my hands and feet getting cold again, and I’m scared to set foot on a scale… But I’m not going to wait until I’m feeling 100% as horrible as I used to before getting something done about it.
