Hi everyone hope you’re all doing your best.I recently completed thyroidectomy and I am now on levothyroxine. 
I would like to know if anyone is experiencing side effects of this and what are they. I am on 100mg, I feel tired most of the time and experiencing high level of appetite.

  • Morning , I am on 150 and have been on this since mid Jan 25. I have no side effects but I am due a review and think they may reduce as this is quite high I think.

    I really hope you feel like you again soon..maybe talk to Yr nurse, mine are so helpful.
