Not related: Hi. Whatever symptoms you're attributing to taking a few extra thyroid pills (how do you get 88 mcg from multiples of 25 mcg pills? Are you cutting them?) for 2 days will do no harm, nor will it cause symptoms due to l-thyroxine's very long half-life. Therefore, what you're calling "side effects" are unrelated to taking a few extra pills. Please take your medicine ONLY how your doc prescribed it!
