I think it's been about 7yrs. Each time I've tried to taper off I've felt worse. Yea maybe there is a correlation I've been on thyroxine though for 12yrs. I'm just sick of waking at 5ish every morn cos I used to sleep 9.30-7ish. Maybe my body is In a habit now not sure how to break it. Everyone tells me I need to ride it out until things settle down and I should go back to normal fr me.
Also did u find any side effects when u were changing the time u took the pill?
i changed it slowly. wen i took it in the evening i took it 2 Hours earlier and the next day 2 Hours earlier till i reached morning,wen i changed to the afternoon i did the same thing, no i didnt have any Side effects, but i now have a normal sleep routine and feel waakte in the morning instead of dopey and staring intl space. ive been on thyroxine for about 20 Years. this Sint my first depression but the first time ive taken meds for it. hope things get better Claire
HI Sissy,
I think I spoke too soon. Friday night went out to eat seafood and woke up during the night with nausea and diarrhea. I woke up early this morning with the nausea and knots in my stomach again. Is this what they call a blip and do you know how long it will last before evens back out. I was so happy when I woke up feeling good. I want to feel normal again, it felt so good. If anyone else has an answer please post for some encouragement.
Thank you,
Sue
MOST likely it was the seafood that made you sick.
Sue, I wish I knew. I am still a long ways from being leveled out. I just finished 4 weeks on 20 mg after being on 10 mg for a month.
I hope it settles in soon. Does anyone have any encouraging words?
Sissy
I increased from 20-30 2.5wks ago. Felt better after a wk for w couple days then anxiety n tiredness came back. Anxiety went but as we're moving house tomoro my stress has increased and I have nausea and diarrhea. I think that's from the stress not the Meds as I feel like I've so much to do. I take mine at night seems to work better for me.
The seafood did make me sick, but that was Friday night and this morning was when I woke up with the knots in my stomach and nausea like I had 3 weeks ago. Have been doing good for 2/12 weeks and don't understand why I'm starting to have these symptoms again. I thought when I started feeling better I was over the side effects. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
