[QUOTE="Tracey69, post: 197417, member: 34890"] Hi I am a T1 diabetic insulin dependant I sstarting losing weight, hot sweats, they found i had an overactive thyroid. I was put onto Carbimazole for a while ( can't remember exactly how long). Once that levelled i was taken off it, then in 2006/7 they found i had an underactive thyroid ( weight gain ) so i was put onto Levothyroxine which worked well until recently. I started to feel really unwell but have a lot of medical problems, but i started to loose alot of weight and at first we couldn't work out why, I had palpatations, hot sweats, the doctors tested my blood levels for thyroid and my levels had got to high and it retuned to being an underactive thyroid, they took me off Levothyroxine altogether, which then made my levels to low and i am now back on a low dose of the levothyroxine. They also found another drug was causing a further problem but i am now on the road to recovery after 4 months. First time my HBA1C 7.2 the lowest it's ever been. Hope all goes well for you. Take care Tracey69 [/QUOTE]
