Please do not stop taking the medication!! Talk to your doctor about it but don't stop the medication. I could share a horror story of what happened to me when I stopped taking the medicine but I won't. I just ask that you check with your doctor before stopping the medicine. it's very possible, you are just having a side effect from that brand of medicine. I personally cannot take generic thyroid medicine because it makes my hair fall out even more, so I take synthroid brand. My sister takes Armour which is basically synthroid with another medicine included. there are lots of options out there as long as you don't stop the meds.
