Hi, I am new to the list, and thank goodness I am here. I was thinking I was
going crazy for awhile. But after reading some of the posts I find I am not
alone in differing experiences.

I was diagnosed, finally, with Hypo-thyroid after a VERY complicated pregnancy
and delivery. About 9 months or so now, we have been working on tryint to
regulated  meds and things. Next month I will see the endocrinologist for
further study.

Now for my question, has ANYONE else ever ran into this: I am taking
synthroid, now .1, soon to be increased again. I originally started at .05. We
are increasing it .025 at a time. My symptoms have gotten much better BUT ONLY
if I take my synthroid in .025 or .05 doses. I tried taking the .075 and the
.1 pills, they won't work for me. I have to take my .1 in the form of 2-.05
pills. As soon as I go back on to the .05 pills I felt 100% better.  My doctor
is baffled! He has never heard of this at all. But he says it must be
something with my body chemistry.  Are we overlooking something?
IF you have ever experienced this or know he cause or have any suggestions,
PLEASE email me and tell me about it! Help put my mind at ease
Thanks in advance
