New - Meds not helping my symptoms and having heart palpitations

[Guest guest]

I have Hashimotos and have been treated for 6+ years with

Levothyroxine. About two years ago I noticed heart palpitations. I've

had no improvement since then. I've discovered that the palpitations

are not from the thyroid meds (however they make the palpitations

worse), but still cannot get to the root of the problem. My doctor

has tried Synthroid, Levothyroxine, and Armour. He also put me on

Iodoral. I chose not to take thyroid meds and just take the Iodoral

for 9 months without doctor follow up (not wise). When I finally went

in for blood work, my TSH was 150+!! My doctor retested to make sure

it wasn't a lab error. I retested at 150+. I was devastated, although

I wasn't feeling any worse. I have been on and off thyroid meds over

the last couple years and I've had my TSH as low as 2 and as high as

150+, and I can honestly say that I don't feel any difference. I

don't understand this???

Right now I'm on Cytomel and gradually increasing my dose. It

doesn't seem to aggravate my palpitations as much. I notice the

palps more when I increase my dose, but then they seem to settle

down. My TSH is now down to 75. I just went in for more blood work

to see where I'm at. I could use any suggestions. I'm really

frustrated and confused about the meds not helping my symptoms and

about my palpitations.

Thanks so much,
