Just looking for others who have these? I developed post partum thyroiditis after my first pregnancy which then became hashimotos so I take thyroxine. My last pregnancy we lost at 24 weeks, so now at 28 weeks this is my first third tri with hashimotos.
I want to know if others have needed to increase their dose of thyroxine? I had my levels tested at 8 weeks and they were fine. Then I had them rechecked last week with my G diabetic screening. The thing is I am having difficulty getting the results, but I feel dog tired, as in hit by a bus tired, which to me feels more like hypothyroid tired than 3rd tri tired, from what I recall of that! I also don't trust Drs with managing my meds with my levels and usually work off my symptoms.
Anyone needed or not needed to increase their dose of thyroxine?
