Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
Your wife reports shows improvement in her report on medication, In my opinion she should continue her medication and get her repeat thyroid test done after 3 months and with that report consult an endocrinologist and adjust her doses accordingly but not stop her medication.
Good Luck.
Regards
