I do Ballroom and Latin American dancing as a hobby and have an underactive thyroid and am on 125 mcg thyroxine. I find lately that my balance is terrible and wonder if it is to do with my thyroid. Can I do anything to help my balance as i need it to be good for dancing? Would be grateful for any advice you can give. Marguerite9

I have an underactive thyroid and am on 125 mcg. thyroxine. Was on 150 mcg. per day but GP has lowered it. Will have another blood test in about six weeks time. Get headaches, suffer sinus problems, night sweats, numb feet and hair has thinned but has not got any worse but has not got any better. Is there any other symptons i might get? Please try and answer. thankyou.

Lowered dosage and you have these symptoms? If you would get copies of your blood tests to which you are entitled, post results on here with the ranges, then you will get advice.

Being hypothyroid you need these tested, and posted here also:

B12, folate. iron/ferritin, Vit D

I am wondering if anybody else is like me. I do a lot of dancing, but find I now do not have very good balance.

I am taking 125mcg thyroxine per day. Is this balance thing to do with having an underactive thyroid?

I would be grateful for any help.
