I get my labs drawn on Saturday and go into see the (new doc) endocrinologist. My family doctor is the one who diagnosed me (long story) and put me on levothyroxine 25mg. I've been taking those for 6 weeks now. I'm not sure if it was placebo affect but it seemed like the second week I started getting energy back and my depression went away. But then after that, all my symptoms returned in full vengeance. I was training for a half marathon that is this weekend but had to give up a couple of weeks ago because my body couldn't handle all the training. My body was constantly sore and my muscles were weak. I would wake up (and still do) every morning like I got ran over by a train. I hate that this thyroid disease is messing up my goals!!

My question for you guys - is anyone else on a different med (like Armour) with T3 and T4? I'm thinking that might be better for my body/symptoms as I've read online. I just didn't know what anyone else was going through. It's getting really irritating. I'm so tired of being tired!! since giving up my half, I've reduced my running to maybe 3 days a week and only doing a walking/running for 2-3 miles and I'm still waking up completely exhausted!! I feel like my friends/family really don't understand what I'm going through
