    I am currently on both synthroid (have been since 2005) and generic carbidopa/levodopa and Neupro patch.

    According to: https://www.pdr.net/drug-summary/Synthroid-levothyroxine-sodium-26

     

    “A combination of levodopa and synthroid may result in a transient reduction in TSH secretion.”

    I will be checking with my Dr. and pharmacist as to what this means as my fatigue is off the charts and seems to be worsening. I am desperately looking for relief.

    Is anyone else on both these meds?  If so, have you experienced any exacerbated symptoms or has your doctor made any adjustment in your meds or timing of taking them?
