On Synthroid Medication. Decreased Medication After The Lab Tests. When Should I Go To Doctor Next?
I have been on Synthroid medication for quite a few years and once a year I would go and see an Endochronoligist. When I moved to BC in 1994 my doctor said I didn't need to go see an Endochronoligist, my Synthroid medication at that time was I was on Synthroid .125 mcg, Then it was lowered to .112 mcg
june 2002 blood test result was 0.60
March 2003, blood test result was 0.06 Dr. decreased Medication to .075 mcg
Should I insist in goingto see an Endocronligist?
