Hello,
Thank you for asking on HCM! I can understand your concern and i am trying to give you some suggestions.
The level of TSH that your reported is high and can aggravate her state of depression so you have to find a way to give her the thyronorm. You may change the thyronorm with another brand of levothyroxine and convince her that is another medication, this would one way, or you may press the tablets with a spoon and give her with a glass of water as we suggest to the babies.
She must definitely take the thyroid tablets and get used with them because the treatment is long life and may be associated with different side effects if untreated and with such high levels of TSH.
Hope this information will help you somewhat to improve the situation of your daughter.
Kind regards,
Dr.M.Guni
