Hashi's & Hyper At The Same Time

by SusieC694, Apr 06, 2009 08:26AM
Hi Dr. Lupo.  I was diagnosed in January with Hashi's.  I was asymptomatic, but had a TSH of 60 and very high Thyroglob & TPerox antibodies.  Doctor put me on 75 mcgs Synthroid and within 6 weeks I became ill with racing pulse, racing heart, trembling, etc.  Dose was lowered to 50 mcgs, but it was still too strong.  I guess my own thyroid is still pumping hormones (TFree was 0.7).  I'm now on 25 mcgs, but still struggling.  What can be done when a patient has Hashi's, is sputtering out hormones and additional T4 swings them hyper?

Thanks for any input you can give me.
