I certainly found that, Susie.

I stopped meds throughout November. TSH 107.5 in December and down to 0.16 in January after I went back on T4. Most symptoms resolved by Feb but it's taken up to now for the skin to stop peeling from my hands, feet and legs. Skin is still quite ragged around some of the cuticles. I'm still shedding hair in the same amount as I have since starting Levo 2 years ago. I'll be delighted when that stops.
