Common Questions and Answers about Synthroid nausea

synthroid

Avatar n tn Has anyone had nausea as a symptom of their hypothyroid? In all the literature I have read nausea has never been mentioned as a symptom of hypothroidism and that is the only symtom I feel right now. Thanks.
Avatar f tn ve had severe nausea. I almost passed out this morning. Could this possibly be related to going off Synthroid? I didn't have this symptom last time after my TT and thought it was too soon to start noticing symptoms.
Avatar f tn Did you start on the meds right after your TT? It does take a while for them to get in your system and start to work. The symptoms that you're having point to being hypo. If the nausea gets too bad, you can get anti-nausea meds to help while you're trying to get your levels in check. Being hypo is an awful feeling. There are a host of symptoms.....none of them very much fun. Give it some time, and you'll feel a lot better. Meanwhile, keep posting.
Avatar f tn I had surgery of Thyroid cancer 2 yrs ago,my synthroid had been reduced to -.112 from 0.125 3 months ago, Since then everytime I took multivitamin(dinner time)I felt nausea right away,terrible feeling of throwing up food,just like morning sickness when pregnant. Could this be caused by synthroid? or something else. Anyone experienced same thing?
Avatar n tn I have been taking synthroid 50mcg for about 8 months now. However, for the last month I have been experiencing really bad headaches, have lost 10lbs, very fast heart rate, shortness of breath, very lightheaded (feel very spacy or like I am floating), bouts of nausea and just a general ill feeling. Could these be signs of hyperthyroidism or is this dose to high for me now?
Avatar f tn Give the Synthroid time to kick in. Your nausea is from both being hypo and the RAI. I didn't get experience the nausea until I went home from the hospital after RAI. So some three days later. I didn't start the meds until almost a week later. It does get better. The nausea is just a phase. Not a long one, but a phase none the less. I took Zantac and it helped all along until just after I got home.
Avatar f tn I started having nausea, on Tuesday, which was somewhat relieved by vomiting Tuesday evening. However, I have continued having nausea every day since then which begins in the morning and lasts all day, whether or not I eat. Some days I have vomited others I haven't. I do get more nauseous when standing and even more nauseous the longer I stand in one place, which also makes me light headed & increases my headache pain. I went to my doctor Friday.
Avatar n tn prescribed me Synthroid 125 mcmg. Made me feel real crazy, anxiety, jumpy, heart paplitations as I did before the diagnosis. Went to another physician and he tested my levels and placed me on a lower dosage of Synthroid of 112 and ordered a ultrasound. Dr. Sent the ultrasound to an Endo. appointment is scheduled in February 11, 2008. Have pains behind my left breast bone from time to time dizziness, nausea, forgetfulness and still gaining weight.
Avatar n tn I have been extremely fatigued for the last month and have just started having vague intermittant bouts of nausea. Meds: besides Synthroid--Hydrochlorothiazide and Trazadone 50 mg. at night for sleep. The other change in my life was my 20 year old son possibly having sudden cardiac death, collapsing during marathon. After a month of cardiac studies , including three days in the CCU, his Dx was a rare form of heat exhaustion and severe dehydration.
Avatar f tn Endo prescribed synthroid. I went even more hyper, this showed in test. Stopped synthroid, started desiccated thyroid. Health did a 180, but still not feeling well. My dr at first didn't believe my illness had anything to do with thyroid, she sent me to mental health, who ordered more thyroid testing. Does anyone have any experience with iodine induced thyroid disorders. I've been unwell for months and just want to get better.
Avatar m tn In July I started experiencing lightheadedness and nausea about 2 hrs after taking my morning Synthroid. It would last about 6-8 hours. This went on for weeks. I finally went for a blood test and my TSH was abnormally low at 0.18. My doctor ruled out Graves, toxic nodules, etc. So I am now on 88 mcg and my TSH has gone up to 1.02. Free T4 is at 1.4 (upper limit is 1.8). My symptoms have gotten better but not completely gone.
1040442 tn?1255053062 They killed her liver and she has been taking Synthroid ever since. Things seemed to be going pretty well over the years, if her levels were off ,her endo would adjust Synthroid accordingly. About 3 months ago, she started feeling very week, what she described as "rubbery legs". We didn't really know why, but she went to see her endo, got a blood test and this showed levels of hypothyroidism. Not too high in comparison, but much more hypo than she has ever been.
Avatar f tn Had been feeling terrible when I was switched by my mail order to Synthroid instead of Levothyroxine. Dr. also said I was hypo. Recent test results TSH - 7.93 - Thyroxine Free 0.80. Can some people tolerate Levo better than Synthroid. Don't know if my symptoms of nausea, bloating, depression, hot spells are due to Synthroid or hypo. Thank you so much.
Avatar n tn I was Diagnosed and Treated with radioactive Iodine for Graves Disease in the Fall of last year. Since then I have been battling hair loss, weight gain, muscle cramps and extreme tiredness. I recently in May went on the synthroid but haven't had much change except for the muscle cramps have reduced. My question is though, how does taking synthroid effect your periods.
219241 tn?1413537765 I had severe nausea while on Synthroid. I always had a weak belly though. I am very sensitive on any meds - I went to Armour - I do not swollow it and only take it sublingually. That has helped belly issues for me.
Avatar n tn I was told by my doctor after a routine blood test that I have hypothyroid , I had no hair loss, weight gain or fatigue ,. tested three times same results . So I went on synthroid and the very first day I began having side affects .Horrilble headache , fatigue , nausea . and my hair started to fall out . To make a long story short , on the 7 th day of treatment I had to be hospitalized for cardiac a-fib . So the Question is why take anything if I have no symptoms of hypothyroid ?
Avatar n tn Hi, I'm a 55 year-old female who has been on synthroid for 2 years for hypothyroidism. My TSH has been about 2.3-2.5. I experienced what the doctors first thought was a heart attack..shortness of breath, extreme dizziness, nausea, headache, and pain in my back under my shoulder blade. I just spent 5 days in the hsopital undergoing every major test and scan, and had everything some back negative. Discovered that my TSH level jumped to 14.79.
543435 tn?1282242679 Anyone taking synthroid find themselves nauseous (almost like morning sickness) andy time there is a does increase? If so how long before it goes away?
Avatar m tn Saturday I woke with a splitting headache and after taking the Synthroid I was shaking. I also had nausea and diarrhea. Sunday was even worse- wake up with a splitting headache, shaking, sweating, nausea with vomit, etc.. The headache seems to subside a few hours after taking the Synthroid. Obviously I'm going to see a doctor but my doctor doesn't know much about this (she told me so.) Ideas?
168348 tn?1379357075 ther is no other choice here. I find that taking Synthroid with other meds is not a good mix and need to really spread all meds out with my Synthroid to avoid side effects ... but with this pill it is time released for a week .. so here's to hoping it just is an adjustment period similar to that when I started the Synthroid. I'll let you know I guess.
506043 tn?1222294696 I was started on 150 mcg of Synthroid. Then it was upped to 175 after my bloodwork showed a TSH of 1.6 after 5 weeks on the Synthroid. I had more bloodwork today, and I have a feeling my visit to my endo next week is going to result in an increase to 200 mcg. I have felt good on both dosages so far, though my husband says I'm better on the 175... not as moody, more energy, etc. What does he know?
Avatar f tn Well I took the I131.. That night and next day hit me like a truck as far as the hot /cold flashes and the nausea.. Thankgod for the anti nausea pills! I had a thyroidectomy for Papp/Foll cancer.46 y women.haveing the body scan on the 23.I start my synthroid 100 this sat. I am ready toget back to normal!!!

545411 tn?1214411608 65, FT4 10.2. Synthroid increased to 175. On and off fatigue, brain fog, nausea and depression. No significant weight change. 55 year old male. Is this going in the right direction?
Avatar n tn Dx Central Hypothroidism and Hashimoto Taking synthroid 125 Endo added cytomel 10mcg due to low ft3 and persistent hypo symptoms.Feeling terrible and even worse with added titre (cytomel) 10mcg. Rang Endo and told me to stop with cytomel. Is that possible that such a low dose could make me feel awful...double vison, sense of nausea, some palpitations...to add to my already hypo symptoms...plus ft3 and ft4 have not risen even a tiny bit. I'm really confused at this point.
Avatar f tn (My Dr. disagrees) I had not a really bad episode with the nausea and dizziness since I have been on Synthroid, just still fatigued and weak.
Avatar f tn I am 22 and been on generic synthroid for 4 years now. I just realized why I had crazy headaches and nausea every time I missed two or more doses. The withdral symptoms I have include headaches extending from the back of the head to the right and front of the head, loss of balance & coordination, nausea, severe brain fog, difficulty with concentration and speech (slow thought process), memory loss, sensitivity to light, muscle pain, fatigue, moods get worse, and feeling like I will pass out!
Avatar f tn Thyroid replacement hormone, Such as Synthroid, can affect adrenal function and cause nausea, vomiting, fatigue, abdominal pain and other symptoms. She made need to take Hydrocortisone now, to balance with the Synthroid. She should have a thorough work-up done by her endocrinologist to examine adrenal function. In the meantime, you can try ginger tea, or slippery elm, to help with nausea and stomach upset. She may need sodium, if her adrenal function is suppressed.
