I'll experiment. Only thing is I'll start being an insomniac again. If I get too much levothyroxine I cannot sleep. I hv some 25mgs so I'll only increase 25mg for a month and I'll see if any different or more/less palpitations. If weight falls off and no insomnia or palpitations I'll inform specialist of my findings. More importantly if no pains.
GP feels my pain is from heart disease and fatty liver. Of which are reported to improve with weight loss. So then less pain.
Ickihun - To be clear, I'm not saying you or anyone else should self medicate with Levothyroxine or anything else.
I am now taking Liothyronine as well as Levothyroxine to support my wonky thyroid. For the Liothyronine, for my dosing to feel comfortable, I dose three times a day, with one dose being a quarter tablet. I had to get my head around all that pill cutter nonsense. I'm still in the bedding in period, so not quite in a sweet spot yet. I just hope I can find a sweet spot!
If you have other conditions in play, which you obviously have, then it makes sense any adjustments should be done in a controlled way, by monitoring the relevant hormones and nutritional elements. Thyroid meds are extremely powerful, and a key-critical element of our whole metabolic health.
For me, that would be TSH, FT4, FT3, thyroid anti-bodies - particularly if you have auto-immune thyroid disease. Vitamins, D, B12, Ferritin, Folate, and CRP for inflammation levels. If your vitamins and iron are down a bit, it can impact on thyroid function.
