Diagnosed With Hypothyroidism And Taking Synthroid. Having Body Pain, Cold And Terrible Anxiety. Need Help?

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 6 years ago(after the birth of my last child). I was put on synthroid( 88mcg currently). My TSH is at 10 right now and i feel horrible all the time( tired, all over body pain,cold,forgetful, mind fog,moody, terrible anxiety, inability to eat in the day time but very hungry at night, i have intermittent vomiting, and I am terribly under weight, just to list a few symptoms. No matter what my TSH levels are i always feel terrible and can barley function. No matter what the lab test say i always feel sick and my doctor just goes by the lab results and brushes me off, i'm desperate for some relief i feel as though my life is passing me by...i need help.

Hello,
Your lab report of TSH at 10 clearly suggest your thyroid functions are disturbed.
Your symptoms clearly suggest that you are having effects of being hypothyroid although there could be additional deficiencies of VIT D,VIT B12 and calcium also.
Regular use of SYNTHROID makes you loose calcium from your bones.
Get yourself tested for these deficiencies and get your prescription revised
You may even consider changing your doctor.
Thanks
