I have been put on levothyroxine 12 months ago and recently upped to 150mcg a day. I still feel shattered and have had a few strange hypos where my blood sugar seems to dip very fast 2 hours after my evening meal.

I just wondered if there was any connection between levothyroxine or treatment of thyroid problems and diabetes control?

Has anyone else experienced any issues please?

Hi, I have been type 1 since age 3 and have been on Levothyroxine for years. As far as i know the Thyroxine doesn't interfere with Diabetes control.
