Thanks for the reply. My hormone specialist has me taking Nature-Throid 48.75 mg per day. I am scheduled to do another blood test for hormone and thyroid levels in the next couple of weeks. I will see my doctor again around the end of April or first of May. I have told her of my fatigue each time I have an appointment. Should I ask her to look at my thyroid levels more closely? My regular primary physician does not seem to be able to address this and I trust my hormone specialist to do this.
I will scan my lab reports from my hormone specialist and try to send them to you. Many thanks

You are absolutely on track. Please keep close watch on thyroid hormone levels.
Also I will suggest you to take B 12 and Folic acid and Omega 3 supplements on daily and regular basis . You might need prescription for the same.
As you said, you can scan and send your reports if you want once you get the same.
Wish you a great health.
