Hi,
Headache and nausea may not occur with the reduction in Thyronorm dose. Other cause such as abnormal blood pressure or blood sugar should be ruled out. Headache can also occur due to migraine,stress or eye disorders like refractive errors. In case symptoms persist,Ct or MRI brain may be essential.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
