I'm new to these boards. I have a question and hopefully maybe someone can answer. I was diagnosed with hypothyroid about 7 months ago just after my son was born. I have yet to find the correct dose of meds. I'm on 125mcg of levothyroxine. I have my levels checked frequently and they keep changing. About 2 months ago I was just above normal levels of my tsh. I went up just a little bit on the meds and how levels drawn again a month later. The tsh was even higher. Why would it have gone higher even with the higher dose of meds? So the doctor went up on the meds again. I've been on 125 for 6 weeks. I think it maybe too much and now I think maybe hyper. I feel really sick, some chest discomfort dizziness and feeling like I'm going to pass out. I'm not sure if I need to go in to have this checked or not. I'm supposed to have blood drawn tomorrow and see the doc on wed. but I don't know if I should wait that long. As anyone ever had to much of the meds?

Hi Amarisa,
Welcome to our board.
From your description, you may have gone into the hyper area.
