Get hold of your results, find out what your doctor is testing. He has been neglecting you, leaving you on 25 mcg for a whole year! 50 is the normal starting dose, to be increased after six weeks! So, make sure you get retested six weeks after starting the 50 mcg.

There's not very much you can do, but wait, I'm afraid. These things take a lot of time to resolve.
