At my two week check up the doctor switched me to Nature Throid 1 grain. I'm still tired, although I think the fatigue is improving. My muscle and joints pains aren't any better though. I don't feel like walking (exercise) because of the joint pain. I've also noticed I'm not as cold natured but I still get cold when both others aren't.

Thank you for your well wishes. How long approximately was it until you really felt better for the majority of the day or just consistently?
Hashimoto's means you have a high level of thyroid antibodies. The tests for TgAB and TPO will show this.

I am on Nature-throid too. I was really tired for weeks but now I'm feeling much better. Also Nature-throid doesn't have extras like corn in it.
