To Louise, I did start feeling better within the first week, and still am to a degree, I just still get tierd and fatigued on certain days.

It could be my anxiety making me tierd as well. I was so freaked out when my tsh jumped so high within a week. All the years I have had this it has never gone above 20. Then I was freaked out and pleased it dropped to 32 in two weeks which is just as fast. Has this happened to others, The doc's are acting like I am unusual and this scares me. The endo insisted I would not drop so low so fast and when I did she apologized, but you would think she would be used to seeing different results for different people..

Hi Mary

In order to reply to someone, there is no need to start a whole new question, you just need to click on 'reply' under the person's comment. :)

If you do this then it is a lot easier for people to keep a track of the conversation and of your particular problems. :)

You would think they would know that everyone is different! :)

Yes you would, but do you have any input on why I came down so fast and do you know how the meds work in regards to whether or not you need more. I know it takes several months to get working properly, but as I said earlier a low dose should not put me into hyper should it? When I said stopping at a certain level I meant if it is not enough and it takes you down to 15 in tsh and the other t's stay the same, will it just stay at 15 until you increase the dose or will it wear out and you go hypo again?

Hi Mary

Your reply did not get lost, I am just very busy and tend to moderate the site rather than actually answer health queries. I'm afraid I have only just managed to find the time to check my emails, so have only just seen your reply.

I will delete your other question to me as it is not really required any more.

Unfortunately I cannot help with your query, but I will direct someone here who may be able to.

Louise
