Make sure you leave off tomorrow's then get back to normal.

If you regularly take them first thing, why not put one tablet out on your bedside cabinet with a glass of water ready for when you wake up then leave the packet in the draw.

Get a weekly pill dispenser for your Levo and keep by the bed

Fill it up Sunday evening and then you don’t have to think about it until next Sunday

You'll be fine. They dose mental patients once a week...7 pills at a whack.

Just skip tomorrow's dose, like other have suggested.

no wonder theyre 'mental' 'I would be if I was given a double dose of Levo, never mind a WEEKS all at once. or were you joking in which case - right over my brain fog!

Research has shown that one weekly dose can be fine.

Nope, I wasn't joking. I should have said 'non-compliant' patients. Which is people you have to watch actually swallow the pills and not spit them out. Which is mostly mental patients, I would imagine. They are probably mental because of being on levo only, lol.

Because there is no such thing as mental illness, only mental manifestations of physical illness. We are a chemical machine :)

Poor people. Its quite scary how many people are written off as having mental problems - and they may or may not be diagnosed with thyroid disfunction - or, as you rightly say, we who have been on Levo!! Scary world we live in.

Like everyone is saying, you'll be fine, just skip tomorrow morning. Some people take 75 one day and 50 the next to get an average over two days, and some patients take a week's worth in one go. It's ok

I did this recently with 175 msg and I didn’t feel any different I mistaken took mine instead of the vitamins too. Think it was riredness. I still took my usual dose the next morning.

I’ve done the same, took my morning pill again in the evening. I didn’t have any ill effects just felt a bit silly for doing it!
