Hi Everyone.....My levoxyl never had the packets. However, even my Bayer Aspirin has them inside. I just remove it. My B12 Vitamins  that I get  through my Doctor has them inside and again I simply remove them. Karen...I am so happy to see you back on the new forum. Where is Cabro?  She is such a good person and fighter like you.  Sue... I hope all is well in your life and your daughter Is feeling better. I wish the new levoxyl was PERFECT but when I consider the alternatives  and all my health issues I continue taking the levoxyl every single day and just involve myself in other issues beside myself. Did everyone turn the clocks AHEAD?It takes a few days for all the chemicals I take to synchronize but then I am okay. It will be so nice to have elongated daylight. Janet, I hope everyday gets easier but you never forget your BEST FRIEND...Love...Kat

Yes, I do see the packets in magnesium and other vitamins. I have never had it in any of my thyroid medications. I suppose it is removed before Express Scripts ships it. Cabro (Carol) and I talk on Facebook. She is still struggling with her meds. The endo took her off Levoxyl about a week ago as her TSH doubled. She is trying to adjust to Nature-throid now.

It is good to have more input on here. I am so glad to see you and Karen W. on again. My daughter see's Carol's endo, and has an appointment tomorrow. She is struggling even more since he increased the prednisone two weeks ago. We are sure hoping he has another medication to try for her. She has high levels of testosterone and DHEA-S.

I am still trying to stay on Levoxyl. I feel it is affecting my IC. I see my endo later this month, but, honestly, have no idea what med to try next. I have plenty of Synthroid on hand. However, I had continous sinus infections when on it a few years ago due to the filler, acacia. I also have some Nature-throid. My blood pressure went up on this one. I have read on Hypothyroid Ladies (Facebook)that one should take half a teaspoon of Celtic Sea Salt twice a day in water if BP is up on N-T. That will be worth trying if I do decide to try N-T again.  Clocks are all set ahead here and ready for another busy week! Please keep checking in on here, Kat and Karen. <3 Sue
