Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I have gotten so much from reading everyone's posts, I haven't had the need to post very often... I got my Hashi's Dx last June/July...have upped my dose (levothyroxine) to .5mcg thre months ago...sufferering depression, still no weight loss and all of the other crappy symptoms that are related...as well as symptoms of peri-menopause and ADHD...I thought I was going to have to commit myself to a mental hospital...I have actually lost 5.5 lbs in the past month..I attributed the weight loss to starting yoga practice. Went to a new dr. with hopes of more aggressive treatment...including T3/T4 combination etc if needed...she is on board and full of information... However, my TSH came back at 0.01...and I have been advised to take the levo, every other day at the same dose, and recheck in 4 weeks (better than the 12 weeks between with the other dr.). Does this seem reasonable? Is it possible my labs were scewed because I had taken my meds 4 hours prior to the test? Can Hashi's go into remission? I was so pleased with my weight loss and feeling somewhat normal over the past 2-3 weeks (only 2-3 weeks of the prior 12 between labs)I am dissapointed that I may not continue to experience this.
