Hi, I am not knowledgeable about thyroid disorders, but am hoping to get some information. A good friend of the family (22 yr. old young man) was recently diagnosed with
hypothyroidism, so was put on a dose of 50mcg of Levothyroxine. After a week or so, he began exhibiting symptoms of mania, delusional thinking, and paranoia. He saw the doctor who had prescribed the Levothyroxine, and told him how he was feeling. the doctor sent him to the emergency room.
