My vision is burry. My mouth is slightly burning. My ears are popping. I can not tolerate any perfume smells or chemical which makes me feel depressed. That is the worst of the symptoms. I've been to numerous doctors. Can anyone help me? I'm in the medical field. Hypothyroidism; insomnia, are some of my symptoms. Help, please help!

    How are you feeling?  I am also having a lot of problems with Synthroid but mainly body aches.  I started the 125.mcg dose but stopped it after a few days and the aches went away (for the most part)--I then started tirosint 125 and the aches came back.  Stopped again and I really want to stay off it or find a way to wean off it - depending on how my body does. Can you stop the medicine a few days or go back to the dose you were previously on when you had no problems?  Best of luck to you!
