In reply to Synthroid Anxiety - Will it go away?, posted by falstaff on December 11, 2007, at 15:44:25
> I need to up my Synthroid b/c I'm hypothyroid but whenever we try, I get really anxious. We're trying again, going every-other-day. Have others experienced this? If so, does it go away?

My dr upped the dose of generic synthroid a few months ago. It was hard to get adjusted to because of anxious and nervous feelings. After about a week or so i felt better. To make it easier i used the lesser dose every other morning. Maybe you can gradually go up to the higher dose.
It feels like the right dose is lower than what the dr says the lab test shows...i feel better on the lower dose. i sleep better and am more relaxed. Yes- i can relate to feeling anxious because of thyroid med, too.
Take care,
kerria
