Im male , 71 had a complete thyroid removal 16 months ago. I m on .137 mcg thyroxine .and under strict doctor care. I had papillary cancer on one side... Just wondering if my TSH level of 1.34 and taking the .137 mcg could cause diarria. My doctor wants me to get down to . 27 TSH or less. I feel great, but don t like going to the bathroom all day ( 3 times ?? ) . Thanks, Rich
