Dr Toft's article on TSH levels - help please.

Hi everyone, I am seeing my endo on Wednesday and wondered if anyone can point me in the direction of Dr Toft's Pulse article on TSH levels when medicated with levo. I know my TSH will be really low, it's negligible, so I'm expecting to be told I'm overmedicated - I'm not, I have a pituitary problem and a letter that says TSH should not be relied on to monitor my treatment, but every endo or GP that I have seen just completely ignores the letter that I give them.

I thought Dr Toft's article might convince them that I'm not overmedicated. If anyone can help, I would be really grateful. Thanks.

Rita-D,

Insist they take notice of the letter. They are negligent if they ignore it.
