What are the side effects of getting of thyroid medicine. I had hypothyroid after my hysterectomy.? -

My dr had me taken asthma medicine, thyroid, sleeping pills hypertension meds and hormone therapy. I gained over 40lbs in 2 weeks after I started this cocktail. After I stopped taking these meds, I started to loose weight. I ve started a diet and vit program based on my own research. I went from a size 4 to a 10. Can some one help me find the right Information.I have no desire to take all those meds.

Thyroid medicine just replaces the hormones that your thyroid used to produce, it should have no side effects.
