Hi I  had a thyroidectomy nearly 5 months ago I just wondered if anyone had any  sleep problems. I had blood tests done yesterday see if anything is out of range.  My parathyroid tests was still low on last blood tests. My calcium vitamin d supplements have been reduced by one.

  • Hey,

    I was on 175mg Levothyroxine and with that had insomnia! They have put it down to 150/175mg alternating daily and it's way better now!

    Hi I was on 100mcg then they reduced it to 75mcg last bloods were just in range I had calcium vitamin d reduced to 3 tabs a day. I had another blood test Wednesday just gone. Supposed to have a telephone follow up but have not received no appointment yet. Looks like I'm going to have to chase it up  next week as they are trying to get me off the calcium  tabs. I  don't get much sleep but do not feel tired  but look tired.

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
