I had blood work and the ARNP read the results and said thyroid is a little low , but no need for medication. The next day I received a call from the office saying come in, I need to be on meds immediately for low thyroid. So they put me on levothyroxine and statins for high cholesterol and Vitamin D because I'm deficient. After 2 months I went back in for bloodwork and I told them I feel miserable since I have been on all this medication. I have no energy and I want to sleep as soon as I get home from work, restless at night, constipation, which I never have and aches all over. They decided I now need a diuretic because my blood pressure fluctuates. I felt fine 3 months ago with the exception of being overweight. ( I have 3 jobs and have poor eating habits, 1 meal a day). I have had no symptoms and was doing fine until they put me on all this medication. They said the medication would not make me tired and it's just my lifestyle and all the work I do that is catching up to me. I have been working 3 jobs for 10 years without a problem. Coincidental that it caught up to me shortly after they put me on all this medication. Reading the other comments makes me feel better. A retired pharmacist told me not to stop the levothyroxine....so now I'm worried.
