Have you had your ionized calcium checked? My total calcium was normal, but ionized was low and causing symptoms - may be worth checking into.

I don't know whether this will help you or not, but I had the same thing happen to me after TT for cancer. I chew 4-6 tums aday for calcium and the pins and needles have gone away. Hope you get better, that is a terrriable feeling.

TSH suppression in thyroid cancer is common practice, but sometimes we go overboard. It is particularly important in high risk patients, so as a 34 yo female, you most likely have Stage I cancer (unless there are metastases outside the neck) so usually the goal TSH once we have proven there is no significant recurrent/persistent disease is 0.2-0.7 (and this is debatable)
Given the normal calcium and otherwise negative evaluation, it makes sense to lower the dose to see if this helps.
My calcium level is 9.02 which is good. When they did TT doctor told me that he took only one parathyroid out. Thank you very much. Maybe more ideas? By the way I just went to my Endo and he decrease Levoxyl fro 112 mcg to 88 mcg.I'll re-check my TSH in 6 weeks.
Thanks again. Sveta
Out of curiosity... how are your calcium levels? Does your doc check to make sure your parathyroids are still working? (That is if they left in your parathyroids when you had the TT.) Anyhow,
Just a thought.
