I can feel my heart beating in my chest and throat all day today.
Brief Answer:
For how long have you been taking levothyroxine?
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this feeling and all the inconveniences this has caused you. I have reviewed your information fully and this feeling could be related to the drug levothyroxine. If this is a new drug, the dosage might be high for you. Also, if there was a recent increase in your dosage, that could be the possible reason why. I will suggest that your dosage and medication should be reviewed and possibly lowered if indicated. If all of these possibilities are addressed, then we may want to think that this could be related to a possible anxiety state for which counseling and other medications may be recommended. Let me know what your immediate take and thoughts are.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
