TSH results help please

[Mitsy123]

I was on a ‘new dose’ of 100/125 for 17 days feeling over medicated after only a few days in, and attached are my blood test results - can anyone offer any insight please. Thanks 🙂

We usually advise 6-8 weeks on a consistent dose before retesting, as it can take this amount of time for our bodies to adjust.

What dose were you on prior to alternating 100/125mcg?

Is it the same brand of Levothyroxine?

What adverse symptoms did you experience to make you think you were over medicated?

I get adverse symptoms if I adjust medication too quickly, so am now an advocate of low and slow changes, adding only 12.5mcg (alter days at first) until well tolerated.
