General & Family Physician,  's  Response
hello,
I read your concern.

Dizziness that you are experiencing may be due to progressive hypothyroidism, rather than the thyronorm or the change of dose of thyronorm.
I would suggest you to get your TSH and Free T4 levels done to check if the TSH levels have increased.
If yes, that would mean that the dose that you have been taking is not sufficient enough and needs to be reviewed.
Kindly follow up with the latest TSH values for further advice.
