Why do I?

     Why do I have decreased sensation in my mouth.  I can eat hot peppers and not feel the burn. My mouth also feels puckered which  makes it difficult for me to speak. I had an RAI in Feb. and just started on synthroid last week.  I also feel very tired and want to sleep a lot, or not sleep at all, am just tired. Some days i just feel down right lozy.  My last TSH was77.4.   Just wondering if that has anything to do with all the symptoms i am having.

Thanks
Karen

     My thyroid stayed normal till just this month. Then crashed. And when it crashed I got sick. Been feeling sick sense.  Hope to be on some sort of up swing soon.  I hate feeling this way.  I have waves of fear, neasua, and have extreme fatigue by afternoon.  I will survive this tho and be my usual up self soon. I am sure

Thanks
Karen

Yeah, a TSH of 77.4 would make you feel down right lousy.

Why did you have to wait so long to start Synthroid?
