Hypothyroid symptoms

Mental health
1

just curious if anyone else has these symptoms being hypothyroid:

Lightheaded/vertigo

Numbness in fingers and legs

Mild jaw pain

Head pressure

And if so does it ever get better?!?

2

Have you seen a endocrinologist

3

Not yet I'm waiting on an appointment, my GP is the one that diagnosed me tsh was a 10.65 but my t3 was within normal range.

Ive only been on levothyroxine for 3 weeks

Good luck. They have meds to regulate hypothyroidism. If thats all inter related i would say it goes away. If its anxiety related seems to be lifelong 

6

I've had these systems off and on and I've been on these meds for about 6 weeks. Mine come and go but are getting better. These are side effects and they will eventually go away.

I dont know. I dont think anyone knows. 

8

I'm being super patient and hopeful lol

All meds seem to take abiut six weeks to regulate overall. And they up amd change thyroid meds to regulate them.  So id have that attitude too.

Did you get these symptoms before the medication or after? Because I have all of these symptoms. Xanax only helps me.

11

Honestly I don't know , I know that sounds crazy but I've had the symptoms well over 7 months but around the same time I got sick with bronchitis and a sinus infection

12

Ook because I started having Lightheadedness/brain fog / head pressure about 10 days ago. I also have racing heart / cold feet and hands which is symptoms of low thyroid function but the ER/GP said I'm fine it's just anxiety.. I don't know what to do. My symptoms are 24/7 I can't function. But Xanax helps me. Maybe you should try it and see if it works.

So you're saying if she has anxiety she will have head pressure and these symptoms forever?

14

Depends which symotoms are related to what. It depends. If its hypothyroidism behind jopefully as the meds level it all passes. But if it is anxiety that has to be managed as anxiety. It depends.

Do you have any constant symptoms or is yours managed and better
