I've taking Synthroid almost as long as li.
It did take some time to adjust the dose
-- when it was too high (the thyroxine dose)
I had little appetite, panic attacks, insomnia,
sweats, tachycardia and anxiety. When it
was lowered, I felt just fine but gained
quite a bit of weight. Anything higher is
probably not good for my heart and my dr.
does not think that being sub-clinically
hypothyroid is as dangerous as having too much.
I feel fine at this li/thyr. balance,
though possibly a slow release Synth. might
be better *if* it causes Montezuma's revenge.

What balance you can tolerate may vary
with the individual - hormones are powerful
stuff.
