Wow!!! I just read your post and this is so similar to what I have been going through! I was diagnosed as hypothyroid about a year and a half ago.However in the past year I have had a terrible time! I was waking up at night with panic attacks and the feeling of just uncontained enery I have always felt like my thyroid was on this crazy rollercoaster too. I will do fine for few weeks and feel like I have plenty of energy and then for about a week I was so tired I couldn’t pull myself up out of bed! I decided myself to stop taking the synthroid and see what that would do, it was crazy the panic attacks nearly stopped. One of the last thyroid test I had done showed my level at 15. I still decided not to go back on the medicine. I actually started about 2 months ago going to a weight loss doctor because after having two children I have a little extra baggages. lol One of the test they like to do is a thyroid test I din’t say anything about being on synthroid previously or the test I had done about 6 months ago. I kept thinking maybe I should have but decided against it and I am so glad I did. The thyroid test came back that time perfectly within the normal range with being off the synthroid for about 8 months. That just doesn’t make any sense to me at all. I know both of the test are right and mine I saw with my own eyes the results. So I am with you I feel like my throid is still making the hormone every now and then. And when it was making it while I was on the synthroid my levls were too high and causing me to have the panic attacks. I have read that panic attacks are a side effect of hyperthyroid!! It is so frustrating because I feel like the dr doesn’t want to here that or even think it’s possible. So I am going back with the two test results in hand and see where that will get me!!!
