lymph nodes are swollen...indicates your body is fighting some kind of infection.......................i would not be afraid of cutting down medication for a month....everyone is different ....
Hi, I don't know if this is related...Infact I didn't think of the connection before I saw your message. I have had a little rash on my arm since my hyperthyroid symptoms started. I used to be allergic as a child, but haven't had rash for more than 15 years. I did wonder whether it is because I get so hot and sweaty all the time now as a side effect. Hope you find an answer!
Js24, Hi,
Rarely, people are allergic to certain types of thyroid medications and rash is a common allergy symptom. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis causes rash in some people because of the immune system response. Also, sometimes starting thyroid med, calls for increased dosages almost right away because the thyroid gland will atrophy (cut back it's own production). It will do this at different rates with different people but can actually cause increased hypo symptoms until dosage it adjusted to best level.
Best Wishes.
