Test results.

Hi I'm currently taking 3 grains of Thiroyd a day. I've just had my latest test results & my TSH is 1.2 but my T4 is 9.3. Based on this, my doctor said I should increase by 25mcg.

Would that equate to a quarter of a tablet on Thiroyd? Any advice would be appreciated.

I think you could try adding 1/2 grain. Thiroyd are "weaker" than other NDT and actually a bit weaker than what they say on the package. I'm currently on 4 grains per day (but I'm pregnant so I've had to raise my dose a few times).
