Guest guest Posted January 1, 2004 Report Share Posted January 1, 2004 Hi everyone Happy New Year - lets holpe this will be the best yet! I have suddenly noticed how big my tongue is. It has never been thin, but just the past couple of months or so - it is really getting in my way. It is very fat, got teeth marks around the side, I keep biting it and it gets in the way of my speech sometimes. I know this is a hypothyroid symptom but does anybody know if it will ever go away once I optimise my medication. I am taking 2 1/2 grains Armour and 25mcgs. of T4 and am otherwise well.
