New and need advice

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone

I'm new to this group but have got concerns over my medication at the

moment so wondered if anyone could give me any advice.

I have an underactive thyroid and was diagnosed about 18 months ago

and thought it was pretty straight forward. I alternated between 50

& 75 mcg on a daily basis. I then went up to 75mcg every day about 5

weeks ago. At this time, I started experiencing mild headaches which

I put down to me just being tired.

A week ago, my doctor put me up to 100mcg each day and my headaches

are virtually unbearable.

I have them constantly 24 hours a day and no matter what I take, they

don't shift.

My doctor says he has never heard of thyroxine affecting headaches or

migraines so seems baffled by it but I can only think that it is the

thyroxine that is causing the headaches.

Has anyone else had or heard of anyone with the same problem?

Sorry to seem such a novice at all this but I really don't know who

to ask for help.

Thanks.

Jules
