Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic
Regarding your experience with headache and breathlessness following withdrawal of thyroid medication I am suggesting that have a developed a a disorder related to the heart
Disease of the heart causing headache and breathlessness include
Hypertensive heart disease
Congestive heart failure
Coronary arterial disease
No I am possibly sure it has nothing to do with withdrawal of your medication rather a different part of aetiology
I hope this helps Regards
