Achy dose change

recently i was lowered in my dose 1 weeks ago. due to being hyper.  feel better only problem is I'm real achy, almost flue like . body aches. without the flu. anyone get this. did it pass as you adjusted to new dose?if this would pass i'd be good . ?/  any ideas.  popping a lot of Advil/Tylenol  dropped from 200 to 194 to 185 now on compounded natural desiccated thyroid,  got to wait 5 more weeks to rerun the numbers, energy is good,  feel strong, no anxiety, BP been good lately, pulse is OK like high 80's,  just really the aches , joints crack a little also.  thanks Kevin

Good to hear Kevin......you have come so far in such a short time, that you should be proud of yourself.
Maybe get your Calcium checked....that can cause aches if low .
