Still having Hypo Symptoms

After my TT on 3/21 had the RAI on 4/11 my endo started me on 112 of synthroid and just raised it to 125 but I am still tired half of the day and I have body aches all over.  Is my medicine just not working?  Am I just going to feel awfull forever?  Starting to think so.  That and have not been able to lose 1 pound since gaining 15 thru out all this.  Help!

Your body went through a heck of a shock whether you realize it or not, that just a fact of surgery.  Plus RAI and your thyroid issue.  These all have to be taken into consideration in the healing process. For some it will take longer to heal then others and for some maybe years, other not to 100%.  Depending on each individuals system, health in general and mental attitude.

Personally I believe there are three health issue that will remain with thyroid regardless of what type of thyroid problems, as well as just being a women, and they are; Fatigue, depression and weight issues. Again this also depends on a persons personal system.  A lot of women with no thyroid condition have their off days too, of not feeling a 100% well nor all the time

Sorry for the bad new.  However maybe you will be one of the lucky ones who will eventually have a 100% health back, I hope that you do.

Good luck in health and happiness.
