Hello
I am 14 months post CRT trearment for tonsil cancer. My thyroid now is now underactive and I have been put on Levothyroxine. I'm not sure if anyone else has found this, but since taking this (25mcg) my mouth feels awful, sticky thicker saliva and my mouth dryer then usual in the most horrible way. In fact feeling generally very unwell. Has anyone else experienced this on this medication.
Thank you
Angela
