How many forum members here take Synthroid?


How did it affect your seizures and sleep?

I take Synthroid and have taken it for years. It doesn't seem to effect my sleep or seizures.

I take it...have for several yrs...now my doc wont refill the prescrip for me till after I see him...so I'm gonna go almost a month with no synthroid. Other then a noticable slowing of digestion...(which means I also don't get hungry as often...) I haven't had any symptoms...so I'm wondering if maybe the recent pregnancy "reset" my system...
