Hypothyroid
Greetings doc!
My T3-T4-TSH in july were 90-10-7.73 respectively. I was on 50 mcg eltroxin and doc recommended me 62.5mcg. Since then I am regularly taking the med. Yesterday, it came to be 81-8.2-8.89. Could you please guide me on what went wrong? Is it because I take medicine just before breakfast and not wait half an hour as is generally recommended? Also, my weight is gradually decreasing since I started taking medicine 5 years back. I am 5 5' and my weight is 48kgs while my ideal weight is 60 kgs.
I never had any symptom of thyroid as such but weight loss is a huge concern.
Kindly provide your valuable suggestion.
