Hi, I’ve been diagnosed with hypothyroidism by an endocrinologist. Started on Levothyroxine 25mg, (to be increased @ 4 weeks). 1 week into treatment and I seem to be ‘aware’ of my throat all the time ie just where my thyroid is! Not swollen, just a sort of ‘sore’ feeling, It doesn’t hurt if I touch the area. Is this being caused by the drug?
i am currently on the same dose as u…
the only time i am “aware” of my throat like that is when i havent swallowed the tablet properly…
otherwise it goes unnoticed …
side effects of levothyroxine:
high heartbeat/ headache/ muscle fatigue/ fever/ throwing up/
tremor/ weightloss/ diarrea.
No report of sore throat anywhere in my books.
It could be just a cold.
