My mom takes Levoxyl too and always gets up early to take hers. She's been on it for many years.
when she was in the hospital a couple years ago they put her dose up to 100 mcg. from 75! and she ended up getting atrial fibrillation, which in turn gave her a small stroke!Nothing to fool around with these drugs. Her primary physician told her they never should have raised her thyroid med. that much after years on 75 mcg. She is 91 years old!
