You mentioned your arthritis in this post from last November and you weren't overmedicated then.

Developing arthritis can be part of the aging process.
I have arthritis in my fingers/base of thumb which started a few years ago. I've been on Levo for about 47 years and many times in the past have had way over range FT4 before I added T3, but I don't believe mine is due to overmedication, it's due to age.
