What Causes Delay In Regaining Memory Despite Taking Levothyroxine Post Surgery?

My daughter is taking 100mcg Levothyroxine every day and her TSH is 0.12 but her memory power is still not back to her pre-surgery days. Her doctor had suggested that he wants to lower her dosage of Levothyroxine. Is there any problem with her medication as she wants to regain her fully memory?
