I have peripheral neuropathy which causes intense burning under the skin all over my body. I was diagnosed with a low thyroid (which can cause neuropathy) and have tried a t3, Synthroid, armour, and a natural thyroid, all of which cause the burning under the skin to get worse. I have searched online and found many other people who are affected this way but no one ever figures it out. As far as I know thyroid medicine should not cause burning unless it's making it over active (but I'm hypo) . Does anyone have any ideas I can bring to my doctor to talk about? I have been like this for 5 years and I feel like I'm on fire and can't figure out why.
If the thyroid medicine is able to affect the burning in some way and make it worse that may mean that it's my thyroid that's causing the burning in the first place and that means this may be able to be fixed and I can get my life back! If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. My doctor is open for anything but he has no idea why it's happening
