my edno said not to take levo pill before blood test but after.

i read somewhere that you must not take it for 48 hours.The doctors at the hospital told me not to lose one single dose.its all complicated so i just dont take it before the blood test day but after.

Leave a 24 hour gap before test, which should be the very earliest possible (fasting) but you can drink water. Take levo afterwards.

You should take your Levothyroxine as normal on Sunday but take it after your blood test on Monday.
