Suggest Remedies For Weight Gain After Missing Synthroid Medication
I missed taking my Synthroid for 7 days. I was on vacation and forgot to take them with me. I have gained 7 pounds in that time. Could it be because I missed the medication? I really do not think that I ate more that normally plus I did ALOT of walking.
