Puffy Eyes, Tiredness, Lack Of Concentration. On Eltroxin. TSH Levels Are In Range. Advice

hi,
I have been taking Eltroxin 125 MG since the past one year. My tsh levels are in range now. However, i sometimes have puffiness around my eyes, tiredness and above all, fuziness. It is difficult for me to concentrate on work many times and there is a constant lack of interest because of lethargy. Is it because of thyroid? Please advise.
Thanks

Hi, you have been taking eltroxensince one year. some times you have puffy ness around eyes, tired, fuzzyness, lack of concentration, lack of interest .
Most probably eltroxen might not be the cause, but still you can try reducing the dose to 100 mg for few days , and observe.
If no improvement you resume the old dosage and consult a physician for investigation regarding anemia, neuralgia, etc. Thank you.
