At the mo im tired all the time, have real problems waking up and find it hard to remeber things or concentrate some of the time, almost like having "brain fog" alot.....
Have also been reffered now to a sleep specialist at the hosp to see if i have some sort of sleeping disorder causing any probs!!
i was diagnosed with over active thyroid gland at 18 at the time there were treatment options but the tablets did not aggree with me and i ended up having radioactive iodine treatment to partially kill of the thyroid gland which then left me with a slightly under active thyroid function, my treatment is now 150mg of levothyroxine a day and i get this on the nhs also for free as i will have to take these for the reat of my life.
i would have thought you would be on the same treatment but a higher dose? what were you taking.
