I have been on thyroid medication since I was in my 30's. I take Synthroid 75MCG. My doctor has me do blood work at least once a year to make sure the dosage does not need adjustment.

Roxie, did your doctor put you on this medication without a blood test? I guess I don't understand the correlation between thyroid (high/low) and PN. My arms and legs ache sometimes, but I just attributed it to working outside or just the PN condition.

I was only diagnosed about 7 years ago, so I don't believe my low thyroid played a part in my PN.
