I started on more levothyroxine today 50 mg only on Sunday.  The rest of the week I will take normal 37.5.  I don't know what to expect as I am also now taking 5HTP for depression (amino acid) I am overcoming the depression with the Lord and people like you on this forum that give me compassion, great information , love and are there for me when I cry desperate.  Thank you all and I wish you a MERRY CHRISTMAS  and HAPPY HOLIDAYS to those of you that are not Christians.  much love and prayers for all.  Linda  .   I will let you know what happens as I wait to see if this lowers my tsh.

Get your adrenals checked.  After I started taking DHEA, I felt much better, but only under the Dr. supervision.  Good luck.

what kind of a test is that and who does it.  What is DHEA.  Linda

I had my adrenals check by a saliva test.  My naturopath had me tested.  It is rather costly, and time consuming, but it only takes a day and 10 days for the results.  DHEA is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands.  You can by it over the counter.  I only take 5mgs daily and it can not hurt you to take it.  Adrenals play a big part in overcoming depression, weight gain, energy and more.  If you search the net for DHEA, you will find plenty of information.  Hope this helps.
