Thyroid dose
My mother (aged 63 years) underwent complete thyrodictomy in 2015. Since then, she has been on Thyronorm. FOr the most part of year 2016, she was on Thyronorm 75mg. and when in Dec'2016 Thyroid profile was done, TSH came to 11. Post which the dose was increased to 100mg. Its been three months and we observed continuous fall in the TSH numbers (though within range). However, today 03/10/2017 when we got the Thyroid profile tested once again, the TSH has come to 0.17 (Range 0.38 - 4.31). Can you please suggest, if the dose needs to be adjusted? And, if any additional action required?
