Saw the endo mid morning. He asked if I'd taken my meds before he took a follow up blood test, I said 'yes' (although I hadn't before this one or the last because that seems to be the general advice here) . . . Will he find out??

You made me laugh (the subterfuge) and I think you answered correctly. We know our TSH is at it's highest early and we also know it can keep our prescription from being reduced thus thus preventing us from suffering more. Why would you want your dose reduced?
In future keep to the same procedure.
Thanks so much shaws, that's how I feel about it too, I was just worried he'd see right through me when he get's the results, however, as I followed the same procedure previously, maybe he won't....
Thanks shaws..
Haha .... good answer tq ! ! ! ....
He won't find out unless he is GOD ... which (of course) many endos think they are ..... but we know better.
Thanks @bluepettals2 , I guess we learn to be wily on our journey, good luck with yours..
