Bad batch of meds?

Hi all. Sometimes I post here occasionally but its been a while since I've been ok. However, I just started a new bottle of synthroid Sunday AM and since then I have been exhausted - just like before I was diagnosed 4 years ago. Can't get enough sleep...falling asleep in the car, on the sofa at 8 pm in a deep sleep, can't get up in the mornings. It's almost as if they gave me placebos. (I order my meds through prescription mail order.) Anyone ever had an experience like this? What did you do about it?

Thanks.
Danielle

Hi Danielle,


Welcome back.


The others on this board that are taking synthroid hopefully can help you with your question.

They wouldn't be able to legally give you placebo's unless you signed up for a study.

As far as the symptoms, I would go through bouts of feeling like that through the medication. If it keeps up perhaps you need to up your dosage with your dr. Otherwise just do what your body tell's you to do.

Saying "I can't" is a bad word at my house.-Adrienne
