Hey everyone. I recently had blood tests done at doctors because I had a bad experience with numbness and tingling in my arms. My bloods came back and my thyroid is going under active. My doc said that's one of the reasons why I probably had those symptoms. He said I've to go back in 3 months for another blood test to see how it is. He said it will go down slowly. So IL need a tablet to replace. I just want to know what kind of symptoms do you have ? For the people who have a under active thyroid. Thanks x

      Thank you Tammy. I've been feeling so sick lately. I have anxiety as well I'm on 40 MG Prozac for that but I get numbness and tingling in my arms and fingers sometimes. I feel weak and my arms and legs ache sometimes and i feel like im always tired with no energy like all i want to do is is sleep and just not do nothing. It's horrible.. But I have to wait 3 months for another blood test Xx
