Underactive Thyroid
"I&#039;ve been on levothyroxine since I was about 16 (I&#039;m 38 now).  I stopped taking it in 2005 and found that my after plucking my eyebrows they didn&#039;t grow back.  I had hair loss, fatigue, mood swings, everything you can imagine....I had it.  I am now going back on the dose I was on prior to stopping which is 325mcg&#039;s.  I know it&#039;s a lot but my thyroid is so off the charts they need to ramp me up.  I&#039;m hoping I won&#039;t feel so tired and bi-polar after a few weeks of being back on the medication.  I&#039;m not really clear on why I stopped taking it but I&#039;ll be happier for being back on it."
