when to go to ER?

What are signs of hypothyroid, longterm, that would warrant an ER visit if you have no endochronologist until June?
(Thyroid removed 4 years ago but last year of Levo 100 had hypo for 5 months+ and coming out of a 2 week hyperthyroid crisis just 4 days ago)

Anytime you feel that you are in medical distress, you should not hesitate to go to the ER.

Please, consult with your local ER if you are in medical distress as Barb135 mentioned above !!!

The symptoms one experiences from long-term hypothyroidism, as I understand, are quite severe and can be life threatening.  We all need thryoid hormones to live .. if you aren't getting it from your med, then it can cause eventual death.
