Yes JK, I’m tested 3 times per year for thyroid function. Falls the “normal” range. But I’m going to ask if I can bump down a bit on Synthroid regardless and get good results. See if that helps with the bouts of nervousness/nausea. If not, I’ll be more inclined to think I truly do have an anxiety disorder. Doctors are too willing to label women anxious and write us off. Mayo ran a battery of tests. I’d never doubt their diagnosis but I’m only there once a year for a physical. Maybe thyroid hormone can ebb and flow in between and cause symptoms or the Synthroid itself can?

@annedodrill44 I hope your doctor will be able to decrease your dose or change it to a different one so you can feel better.
If the anxiety started shortly after you began taking synchroid it would seem like an awfully big coincidence.
