Guest guest Posted May 11, 2006 Report Posted May 11, 2006 Hi I wrote a post for the first time early in April. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in February and was prescribed Synthroid 25 mg. My TSH was 6.29, then 3 wks later my TSH went up even being on the medication to 6.38 so my dr. prescribed me 50 mg. I developed an allergic reaction to the generic of synthroid. I broke out in a rash all over my body and got extrememly weak. I am now taking the brand name of synthroid and the rash went away but I still am experiencing extreme fatigue and horrible " brain fog. " My endocrinologist told me I have Hashimotos and told me that she didn't need to check my adrenals because my skin didn't look " tan/yellow looking? " I requested she check those because I had a panic attack and was feeling really anxious, but she thought that was just because of my allergic reaction? She also suggested for me not to try Armour until we see how the brand name of Synthroid works. I feel like it's still getting worse, not better. Are there other things that could be contributing to these symptoms? Thanks, Sarie Quote
