Do you have the results of your recent blood test?

Yes, but waiting to talk to my doctor for clarification.

If you post them here meanwhile, with their ranges, members can comment. 125mcg of Levothyroxine is definitely not an uncommon or overly high dose - many will be at that level, or higher, and some much higher; but what's important is, is it a therapeutic dose for you. Hence suggesting to post your blood results. BTW it isn't a medication in the sense that it adds some thing extra to the body, but a synthetic hormone replacement of the endogenous hormones you are now missing.
