Palpitations, Lack Of Energy. Taking Synthoid, Thyroid Now In Normal Range. Reason?

Hi I am a 51 year old female that still has periods regularly every month. I take synthroid once every day for thyroid problem. Had a check up a few weeks ago and thyroid was normal. About a week ago started to have palpitations more often through out the day every day. Don't have energy that I had a few weeks ago. From my symptoms what do you think the problem may be?

The reason for having palpitation and feel loss of energy is sign of Hyperthyroidism. This can be due to increased thyroxin levels in blood. While advising medicines for thyroid gland it has to be regularly monitored by checking thyroid profile to check the effect of thyroid drugs. Sometime they still can't bring the thyroid work normally or sometimes overshoot. But there is nothing to worry. You just need to decrease your dosage under your physician guidance and everything will be ok.
