Hello I just read your query and your detailed history.
First of all it is absolutely safe to take thyronorm for a lifetime and it is infact done so by patients for all their lives.There are some side effects whose frequency are not defined,
Angina pectoris
Arthralgia
Congestive heart failure
Flushing
Increased pulse
Myocardial infarction
Palpitations
Arrhythmias
cramps
diarrhea
nervousness
anxiety
muscle weakness
hair loss
Mind you these usually happen in case you are taking an overdose of thyroxine.

There are problems if you don't take your thyroxine replacement in the form of dyslipidemia,then hypertension,and obesity and heart disease etc.
So its recommended that to avoid the complications of an untreated Hypothyroidism that you take thyroxine for life.
Hope you fine my advice of some benefit.Goodluck.
