THYROID BLOOD TEST RESULTS
My new doctors recommendations are to increase my
Levoxyl
from 37.5mcg to 50mcg, says I do not need to take T3. Does this sound right to you?? Thank you for your help.

Lab Test
My physician doesn't want to try Naturthroid, Armour they keep try traditional synthetic levothyroxine, Synthroid, Unithroud, Tirosint,
Levoxyl
are the ones I have tried. I take 5000 Vitamin D daily for the past 6 months.

blood work
My doctor thinks because my TSH is 1.7 (the only one he gave me) that he doesn’t have to change my strength of thyroid meds.I have swollen ankles, feet and legs, that I used to get with
Levoxyl
and if strength was adjustd itwould subside.

Levothyroxine for Sluggish Thyroids: Weekly or Daily?
The drug levothyroxine (Synthroid,
Levoxyl
, others) has long been the treatment for sluggish thyroids or hypothyroidism. The pill needs time to be absorbed properly, so patients are often instructed to take it daily a half hour to an hour before breakfast.

Free t3 levels
I take 137/150
levoxyl
and 10mcg cytomel. Cutting calories didn't work as I learned awhile ago and exercising just makes me fatigued. I had rai 19 years ago with some working thyroid left. 3 years Ago i think my thyroid fianlly gave out what little I had left.

Edema
I only take
Levoxyl
which has not helped. Levels are in normal range but am suffering from quite a bit of generalized swelling. No gluten. No carbs. Up 30 lbs. I can't even get 5 lbs off. I am a nurse so I am following everything to a tee.

Tsh lowered w NDT spread out at lower dosage amounts?
I was on
levoxyl
for a decade, and they think that I gave Lyme, seeing a Lyme literate dr, and possibly Addison's disease. Questions finally: 1) did it seems like I was overmedicated in the first place on 2 1/4 grains per the above noted test results?

Still fatigue and anxious
I was on
levoxyl
200 decreased to 175 then to 150 December 19, 2016. I have had really bad anxiety since December I believe this was do to being over medicated which made me hyper I'm usually hypo due To RAI in 2003.

Meds Decreased yet labs are doing the opposite:
but I may still swap back to
Levoxyl
. My TSH also tends to be at zero regardless of my dose since TT. The only time it has gone past 2.0 was when swapping from NDT to 125 T4/5 T3 but my symptoms were much akin to now, just more lethargic and cold... and at 137, too. I am at a loss.

Thyroid Medication Question + Hashimoto's
Advises me to lower it from 2 grains taken incrementally throughout the day to 1.5 grains w the addition of 25 mcg of synthetic t4 only med,
Levoxyl
, to ensure that my t4 does not get too low in lowering the WP Thyroid total dose. I tried the
Levoxyl
one day and felt horrible!!

Missed Levoxyl for 2 weeks now back on...cause for concern?
Hello (I'm new here...!) I recently unfortunately had to miss taking my medication for 2 weeks. I was on dosage of 150mg...I took the pills for a week and then had a appointment/blood work done with my doctor and my dosage was lowered to 137mg (I recently lost 20 pounds so that's why I went down). Anyways

Thyroid Update
So he put me on
Levoxyl
150mcg. I was on 137 mcg of Thyroxine. There is another reason I can't remember right now. He is going to get all my past records from my Thyroidectomy(both sides) and from the Endocrinologist. He wants to be complete.

T4 & Hair loss
About 6 months ago I took
levoxyl
(T4) for a month and stopped. Some of my hair fell out. Unfortunately, it is STILL not growing back. Any advice on how to get it to grow back?

Switched to T4 and need advice on what to do next; labs, etc:
TT last year and started on 150
Levoxyl
, added in T4, swapped for NDT and switched back to T4 as of 1/16. I started at 125 T4 and 5 T3 but dropped the T3 as I really want to discern if I can convert.
