Scared

[Guest guest]

Hello,

I did a search of the list to find an answer to my question and I did

find some helpful messages. It would be helpful, though, to have a

direct response.

I have been taking synthroid for years (hypothyroidism). About two

months ago took levoxyl and thought I had an allergic reaction to that

so went back on synthroid (88).

Recently, began having reactions again, which at first I did not

attribute to the synthroid. I had been using SAMe and thought it may

be that. I am not taking SAMe now.

There may be more than one thing going on here in terms of my health,

but without question synthroid is part of it because I ended up in the

ERearly Sunday morning. Heart attack was ruled out and they told me to

stop taking synthroid. Yesterday my doctor told me to take half of the

(88). Within minutes of taking it I felt jittery, not good at all.

So here I am this morning, still feeling jittery (which I did not after

being off the synthroid for a full day) and I don't want to take it but

I am afraid of what might happen if I do not.

I guess my question is whether not taking it could cause even worse

problems.

I know any response cannot be considered medical advice.

Please and thank you,

patricia
