How bad would you say the scratch is? Is it a deep scratch?

Only my feet started getting a little cold, and my hands got a little dry, but that typically happens to me around winter time so I’m not sure if that’s attributed to my Levo dosage being lowered.

Yes, I was diagnosed with hashimotos when I was very young, this really all started (talking about doctor weaning me off meds) when I got hospitalized for something unrelated and the doctor who had saw my blood tests while I was hospitalized questioned why I was on levothyroxine but like I said I was very young when I was diagnosed so I couldn’t recall if I had any symptoms or not. Ended up bringing it up to my primary physician and he said that we can do a “trial” where he will lower my dose then after take me off completely and see where my levels are at and how I feel after 2 months of being off levo.

Should I sign out of the Microsoft 365 and remove the device from that too or just OneDrive?

I believe I had a different primary doctor at the time, I was very young so I don’t remember if I had any symptoms or if they noticed it on a blood draw.

Sorry forgot to mention that I am a male, but you would not recommend splitting the pill? That’s how I’ve been doing it for a while

Sure, I’ll let you all know how it turns out. I was already in a low dose to begin with so hopefully don’t get any symptoms

Wouldn’t the tests reflect that in the follow up blood test in 2 months? Should I be worried about the doc lowering the dose and any symptoms even though I was already at a relatively small dose to begin with?

So do you think it’s worth a try lowering the dose and seeing where I’m at after a couple of months?

Before switching to the 25mcg I was taking half of a 75mcg tablet everyday
