Underactive Thyroid
"I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in November of 2016. Outside of lacking energy I was happy and healthy.  They prescribed levothroxine 50 mcg. Since starting this medication I can&#039;t stop gaining weight, I have severe edema in my lower legs and joint pain.  Doctor and pharmacist don&#039;t think these are side effects but nothing else has changed.  I feel like I&#039;ve aged 10 years in 6 months. I most likely will discontinue and suffer the effects of hypothyroidism rather than take this poison"
