Interesting talk regarding TSH suppression

My constant battle when having my thyroid tests as TSH is always suppressed and then they lower my dose, I get unwell over the following weeks / months and in desperation up my meds on my own and so the cycle goes ..... and then how I actually feel, the fact that I feel well and my heart rate is normal, muscle pain gone, brain clear, not breathless, skin and hair not as dry etc etc etc is completely ignored. It’s a never ending battle, so to hear this is refreshing and gives me hope that eventually, one day, we will have good thyroid treatment without having to resort to self medicating etc. We can only hope. It’s a long listen but very informative. youtu.be/hWU2if9QQl0

Or a shorter version of interest
