Hello all
I know that Levo is a storage hormone and that many do different doses across the week. I currently take 125/100 alternate days.
If it’s a storage then why is it necessary to hold off Levo before blood tests? I’m assuming because it makes an impact on results?
Is it then possible for me to notice a change from day to day on symptoms? I appear to be having a (slightly) better day then followed by a shocker. Overall, I’m quite poorly with this current flare.
I have Hashis and confirmed chronic thyroiditis on scan in December. I’m awaiting Endo referral but likely that won’t be until Feb even though it’s been expedited.
I’m getting medichecks bloods in Jan as this will be the 6 week mark on this dosing regime since reducing from 125 daily. (T4 had gone over range and was having ‘hyper’ symptoms). Previous to that I was on 150.
I know I’m a poor converter.
Any ideas on the alternate dosing be helpful or similar experiences?
Thank you 🦋
