    Thyroid hormone (T-4) is long-acting and even stopping it for a week is unlikely to cause symptoms.

    The missing of a single pill is unlikely to cause you have any noticeable symptoms. Usually tiredness or lack of energy is the most common symptom if you have any. Dizziness is not usually a symptom of hypothyroidism.
