I return the question : what have you done about dose?

You had a Hashi's flare in June, but in August, you were hypo again. So, logically, you should be back on the 175 mcg levo and 10 mcg T3. Are you?

Karla117,

Was dose reduced in June? You were undermedicated in August.

Not what you're looking for?
