I'm new to this group. I joined to find if someone has any advice.
I've been taking Eltroxin for years now and have had to make minor adjustments to dosage which now leaves me taking 150mg 3 days a week and 175mg 4 days a week.
My latest blood test (done every 6 months) shows my TSH is in the normal range while my Free Thyroxine is high at 24.
From my very brief Google search this looks like I am taking too high a dosage and I am to reduce my dosage.
My GP is having some issues wherein I can't make an appt yet so I'm wondering if I should just start reducing my dosage by a small amount myself 🥴
If anyone has had any experience with a similar issue and have any advice that would be great 🤗
Thanks

How do you feel? If your TSH is OK then we really need to see the numbers. NHS doesnt test FT3 and thats what we need to see to know how your Levo is working for you. Many people test privately to get the information they need to be well.
I wouldn't be reducing anything on the information you have given.
