Renie,

It may be a dosage issue that is causing your symptoms. I'm not a doctor but I would suggest that you make an appointment and ask them to check your levels again. I had my thyroid removed due to cancer almost 2 years ago.

Most importantly, make sure they check free T3, free T4 and then TSH. Then get a copy of the results and post the actual numbers and reference ranges.
