Levothyroxine Sodium Thyroid Cancer, Mood Swing, Levothyroxine, Panic Attack, Cramps

I have taken this Levothyroxine ever since I got Thyroid Cancer in 2006. And thank God I am free from cancer now. My main problem now is that, sometime I really don't know what was wrong with me and get confused over my own feeling. I do have cramps, sleep problem, headache, menstruation problem, mood swing, panic attack and always thinking of a negative thing eg like am I going to die. It has been bothering me since than. Please help I just wanna know is this really due to the medication or its really that I am going to die. I am very confused at times when feeling this side effect. =(

Kimberly17 - My understanding is that the medication does not have any side affects, its a synthetic hormone that your body naturally produces. The only way it can have side effects is if your over medicated. The thyroid disease can cause all of different problems. One of them is depression. That can make you have the thoughts of feeling like somethings wrong and like your going to die. The thyroid can also cause anxiety attacks. I hope this helps . Maybe your doctor needs to adjust your dosage.
