I was diagnoised with hypothryroidsim about three weeks ago. My TSH level was 10.4.

My NP is pretty conservative and decided to try me out at .25 mcg of Synthroid. I have felt so much worse every since -- way more exhaused and fatigued than before along with this nauseating vibration all over my body.

Another cyster mentioned that being on too low a dose of Synthroid can actually accentuate your symptoms.

Anybody else find that the case?
