Thyroid symptoms

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi all

I had my thyroid removed in 2009 ( cancer in goitre ) I was put on 175 levothyroxine recently and docs say it's fine I recently had surgery an I felt terrible couldn't understand why ? Went to doc they said anxiety huh I accepted that yet it jus didn't feel right I went to chemist as I jus wanted to know if I could have a multivitamin or something to pick me up he was amazing took me in an said it could be my thyroid as surgery causes it to go bad the doc refused to test my blood so I did something stupid an tried to medicate myself 1 day I took 175 next day 200 but last couple of days I have had some weird symptoms I had shaking hands yesterday and lightheaded and today if had trembles in my leg numbness and tingling in face that's spreading and generally feeling off I was just wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this kind of thing ? Or if they could tell me there symptoms when there medications isn't right ? I'm going to see doc this week as something clearly isn't right but was hoping for some reassurance until then

Thank you
