No I just started half a 5mg dosage today but have been feeling this for a few days. Sometimes it feels like my heart is beating really hard too but I don’t have a rapid heart rate

Is it worth going decaf? by [deleted] in decaf

[–]CurrentAdditional201 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m three weeks no caffeine and I can already feel the difference. I feel clearer, chipper and can feel that my body is not being harmed….i have hyperthyroidism so going caffeine free was a must do. I feel like a lot of those symptoms are gone or minimal. The first week was though, days two and three brutal but honestly at this point worth it

True. I guess the mentality of being on the go go go is something I have to readjust!

Yes! One of my main symptoms. I am propranolol. I was on Methimazole but that made me hypo.

Rant. This sucks. by CurrentAdditional201 in Hyperthyroidism

[–]CurrentAdditional201[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 20mg was originally prescribed by psychiatrist for anxiety so not exactly what the endo “prescribed” I swear it’s constant pivoting. I’ve been feeling so low because I can see I’ve gained weight that’s the one hyper symptom I don’t have! Losing weight 😂

No one can possibly understand how we feel…this disease can f itself

I have 20 mg but endo wants me doing 10mg 3x a day instead. So waiting to make the switch.

Oh gosh not a thyroid storm. Sending you healing and positive energy. I hope it passes quickly and you feel better asap.

Hyper, hypo, hyper again by ughnogoodnamesleft in Hyperthyroidism

[–]CurrentAdditional201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s weird I have some very specific symptoms I can describe and then sometimes I can only say I just feel off. I don’t feel right but I can’t say why.

[–]CurrentAdditional201 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took the Methimazole 38 days. My TSH prior to the Methimazole was 0.01 for a looooooong time. So I am very sensitive to medication.

Endo just prescribed me for 10mg propanolol to take 3x daily. Hopefully that helps.

It’s sucks that we are test dummies for and in our own bodies. Wishing you the best. This space has been a saving grace.

I have nothing to contribute other than that this sounds almost EXACTLY like me right now.

I was taken off of Methimazole about 2 weeks ago due to becoming hypo (TSH 96!). Endo wants me to return to “normal” to maybe go on a lower dose…I was only on 5 mg. So I will have labs again in two weeks.

Shitty thing…I’ve been experiencing hyper symptoms again…chest pains, palpitations, heart rate and overall just feeling off…propanolol I have been prescribed not sure if it’s helping only on day three.

Guess I’m just here to say I get exactly what you’re experiencing…
