I am a 26 year old female diagnosed as hypothyroid about 6 years ago.
In the past couple weeks I have been having what feels like fairly severe hypoglycemia. I get dizzy, have palpitations, start sweating, feel irritable, get blurry vision and feel confused. It seems to be "reactive hypoglycemia" as well as fasting, but the symptoms are more sudden and severe when it is reactive. I can get them to subside with a hard candy.
I have also felt tired and kind of depressed lately and my muscles feel achy and I have bouts of nausea and diarreah. My periods have been irregular and lighter than usual.
Could my lveothyroxine be too high? I have been taking 100 mcg for about a year now. Since my diagnosis my TSH has fluctuated and I've changed my meds and their dosages quite a bit.
Or could it be too low?
My weight is stable.
Confounding factor: I went off the birth control pill Yasmin about 4 months ago.
Thanks.
