Hypothyroidism - Very Itchy Rash On Hands And Waistline
Posted: 11-06-07 23:09pm

I have a rash on my hands (itchy small blisters – feel like they are deep in the skin) and on waistline area (no small blisters; but very itchy). The rash has appeared in the past and typically stays for 4 to 8 weeks at a time. I have hypothyroidism and the doctor recently increased my dosage of levothyroxine to .125 mg. Thinking back; the blisters on my hands appeared before I started taking the increased dosage - hmmmm. Could this be the thyroid medicine or my thyroid condition?

Any suggestions for relieving the itch and getting rid of the rash? I am very frustrated from this whole hypothyroidism thing and getting ready to have a thyroid mood swing moment. Shocked Please save my wife from this torture Laughing .

Thanks much.
