What Causes Fatigue Along With Excessive Perspiration?

I am a 66 year old female who has been on eltroxin for 30 years, I have been very tired lately and have never had a problem with perspiration but lately I do and it is excessive. I also had weight gain which I only had once in my life 30 years ago when they put me on eltroxin. I have no appetite at all, and have a hard time breathing.

Hello

Even if you're taking thyroid medication, unless your TSH level is below 2.0, were I your doctor, I would increase the dosage

I would also check you for anemia since that, too, could cause your symptoms
