"I took armour thyroid for 40 years and Dr put me on levocyl. Anyway a few months ago he dropped my dosage to 50 from 75. The tests showed there was a need. I feel drained...tired. Can I get back on 75 even if test shows I should be on 50?"

"I have used Levothroid and Synthroid. I am currently on Levothroid. It does okay, I have been able to maintain a normal life although I have bad joint pain now after 18 years of use. I have more memory problems now than I did before especially names. And I have lost bone height. I am over an inch shorter now than I was before. I am only 52 and had my thyroid removed due to cancer 18 years ago."
