Are you taking your thyroid on an empty stomach? If not, this could explain your slow response.

Keep in mind that if you take too much (and some doctors don't go over 100mcg a day.), you may develop osteopenia/osteoporosis. Thyroid hormone tears down bone. Elevated thyroid levels also deplete carnitine in muscles.
