What Causes Headache After Taking Raw Thyroid?

my thyroid level is 0.8,I am tired all the time, have fibromyalgia, gerd, abdominal wall pain syndrome, IBS.I tried Raw Thyroid hoping this would help.This first few days,I felt great. Since then, I have suffered from a burning headache and am even more tired.I also take B-12 complex, D3,Claritan, and meds for my spasmatic colon and idegestion.Is the headache a side effect from the supplement?

Hi welcome to health care magic...

By your own such different medication should not be tried...
You have even not mentioned thyroid report fully with detail...

For your weakness and headache following work up done ....
-CBC with hb estimation
(it will rule out anemia and leukocyte disorder if present)
-serum b12 estimation
-serum calcium estimation
-serum TSH, free t4

According to cause further treatment can be guided....

For ex.. If calcium deficiency detected than cholecalciferol sachet given in milk once in week according to deficiency...

For hypothyroidism eltroxin tablet taken and dose adjusted according to TSH level...

Take care

Advise : Physician consultation for examination.....
