https://community.qvc.com/t5/Wellness/Thyroid-Problem/m-p/317088#M8347 <P>I have recently been told I have low thyroid activity and was given medication which I have been taking for about a week now.</P> <P>My question is: Have any of you gained weight on these meds? I was just looking on Johns Hopkins Medical site and it was stated there that it is not uncommon for a patient to gain up to 5 to 10 lbs. This is not good news but I suppose we do what we need to do, weight gain or not. You would think you would lose weight when you have an underactive thyroid,</P> <P>Thanks so much for sharing your experiences!</P> Sat, 13 Apr 2013 15:18:20 GMT HiLo 2013-04-13T15:18:20Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Wellness/Thyroid-Problem/m-p/317088#M8347 <P>I have recently been told I have low thyroid activity and was given medication which I have been taking for about a week now.</P> <P>My question is: Have any of you gained weight on these meds?
