Anyway, I thought of more hyper symptoms -- *both* eyes twitching a couple of days ago. Every once in awhile, I get one eye twitch related to stress (like every few YEARS). But, I've never had both eyes going. Also, last night I was very hot and uncomfortable in bed without covers and it was 65 degrees and H was cold. VERY unusual.
So, I called the nurse today. She pretty much blew off my concern about the switch to generic, but she did call in Levoxyl with no substitutions.
Note that I am assuming you were stable for a while on that Levoxyl dose before and felt well on that dose - is that correct?
Well, not exactly. I started on 75 in July, went up to 125 at the end of August. In October I got pregnant and I was on the hyper end of normal, I think, or maybe even slightly hyper, but the endo kept me at 125 as I was pregnant.
So, I guess I'll go with the 100mg for awhile. I've just switched OBs to one in an entirely different system and I may switch Endos. The HMO I'm with practices medicine in a very paternalistic way a la 30+ years ago when it was assumed patients knew nothing and communication with patients was a waste of time. They say things like "Nurse will take you to see Doctor now." My endo actually isn't too bad, but getting past the red tape to him is impossible. This system actually strongly discouraged me from changing to a different OB within it when I told them I was not satisfied with my care and there were clear cases in which my OB had demonstrated incompetence -- for instance, not knowing about nuchal translucency testing.
I'm sure glad the Republicans saved us from the evils of a decent system of national health care. (sarcasm)
