I went to specialist after specialist to confirm I was a very healthy young man and my Prim doc reduced my dosage to 50mcg and the symptoms went away. At that time my TSH was 1.1. I believe the crazy symptoms were because my body was very used to running at a 15 TSH and all of sudden an artificial hormone is introduced, therefore offsetting your chemical balance.
I caution you to do everything gradually. I say this from experience because I had a VERY tough time dealing with the roller coaster. Also, understand that lower dose isn't the true fix. After 6 months on 50mcg, I was back to Hypo and I was dealing with those effects (brain fog, depression, sleepy, etc). Now I am at 75mcg and I feel like this might be a stable dose for me.
My heart goes out to anyone dealing with this disease. It is so different for each person that modern medicine has a very hard time embracing it.
