"Started out with the pink 200 mg, had swelling in my tongue. Was switched to four 50 mg tabs. I hate this pill, I already have issues with insomnia. It has made it 10 times worse. Not to mention that within an hour of taking it, I have diarrhea for 2 hours."

"I took Armour Thyroid for 40 years, and Dr. put me on Levocyl. Anyway, a few months ago, he dropped my dosage to 50 from 75. The tests showed there was a need. I feel drained... tired. Can I get back on 75 even if the test shows I should be on 50?"

"I have used Levothroid and Synthroid. I am currently on Levothroid. It does okay, I have been able to maintain a normal life, although I have bad joint pain now after 18 years of use. I have more memory problems now than I did before, especially names. And I have lost bone height. I am over an inch shorter now than I was before. I am only 52 and had my thyroid removed due to cancer 18 years ago."
