Levoxyl Digestion, Lower Abdomen, Charley Horse, Levoxyl, Colonoscopy
Posted over a year ago
Has anyone had any gastro related side effects.........??? I have had several episodes of IBS type reactions....especially in the AM after breakfast and taking the Levoxyl.......instructions for the Levoxyl is to take w/ lots of water......too much water before food seems to be upsetting my digestion....it started slow and is now everyday. The best to all. thanks
Hollysodeman - Yes!!! I just had a colonoscopy and everything came out fine but they said that I have IBS. It feels like my lower abdomen has a constant charley horse. I was just looking to see if there was a connection to my taking levoxyl and IBS.
Robbbb - I have been on Levoxyl for 6 months. It causes nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headaches and intense abdominal cramps. I have to take an anti-nausea med to offset these symptoms, but it doesn't take care of all of them and it causes severe constapation. I have had a colonoscopy as well, with no ill signs.
Sweetcaroline - I had IBS before I started taking Levoxyl and it seems to be aggravating it. It is much worse now that it ever was before. I took Synthroid for many years without this side effect, but I had other issues with that, and ditto with Armour Thyroid too. Some people are especially sensitive to thyroid replacement. I plan to see a naturapath and perhaps opt for acupuncture and herbal treatment.
