Overtreating an underactive thyroid Dec 16, 2021 | By Jennifer O'Hara (@jenohara)Comment receiving replies
I have often found full fledged seasoned Pharmacists a helpful avenue for trouble shooting medication setbacks. Two eyes are better than one as the saying goes. They will expertly double check for any medication incompatibilities, as I’m sure you’ll recall. If you haven’t run your thyroid medication side effects by your pharmacist recently, they might have a piece or two to your puzzle.

My pharmacy is helping. They can't diagnose. My , DO has me on 150 mg of kelp. Found at Sprouts and Clark's. When I get new blood test I will see how much this brings down the TSH.

I am working with the pharmacy, my Doctor who is a DO, not MD. I have low thyroid. We are working on using kelp, just started. Blood test in 4 to 6 weeks.
FDA needs to find out why the thyroid medication is causing the side effects. Found 3 more people having same side effects.
Glad Mayo Clinic working on the issue.
