I didn't notice any effects like that but resting heart rate is not something I monitor. No pins and needles as I recall.

Have had the odd heart palpation when I first started taking it and on increasing my dose, yep to pins and needles, and sweats which my mum and brother also get!

Glad to have found this. Had a blood test this week and my doctor's receptionist has told me I have an under active thyroid. Seeing the GP next week

I'm in the club as well now. Started with a small dose and just hoping I'll start to feel better soon. I'd had elevated TSH for a long time but I got really frustrated when I lost most of my taste, GP took every blood test in the world and the only thing found wrong is the thyroid function. I'm really crossing all fingers and toes that I'm one of those weird people that lose taste with hypothyroidism and it will come back!

hi to both of you!
I didn't have any loss of taste cuddy just cold hands/feet and dry skin. much worse in the winter.
after taking the tablets for a few months now, the headaches have gone and it doesn't feel like i'm always trying to run uphill. not sure how winter will be this year! tbh I haven't really seen/felt any change at all.the heart racing has gone now too.

Hi to Cuddy and NSC. It does get better when they find the right dosage.

Hope you do but tbh I don't think I feel as well as I used to. A lot of the symptoms have gone but I do tire easily
