Hi.I had a full thyroidectomy 4 years ago.I currently take 100micro of levothyroxine. I have no symptoms of being over medicated.In my last review the endo wanted to reduce my meds to 75micro based on TSH. I argued that as I felt fine I did not want a 25% reduction of my dose. This week I did fingerprick medicheck sample after leaving 24 hours since last levothyroxine and at 6am. Having read posts on here,I believe that based on my T3,I'm OK on my 100 micro dose...your thoughts would be appreciated.
