    Hi StacyA, My first week on Methimazole was horrible. The endo precribed 20mg daily. I itched and itched, and my headaches got worse during that week. I felt worse than before I started the meds. I quit and went on Chinese herbs without any meds, then a homeopathic remedy. The remedy helped the levels but not fast enough. I got to the point where I could hardly walk 2 steps without feeling over-exerted. A 2nd endo put me on 10mg methimazole daily and within a week, I started to feel much better. I am now on 12.5mg daily.

    wow..just a 10mg dosage change made all the difference, huh?

    Amy, I also have the same reactions, I call it my sleeping pill, when I was on 20mg I slept all the time after being cut back to 10mg it makes me sleepy but not all day. I am falling apart in every area of my body.
