Will low TSH affect this IUI?

2 years ago, I was diagnosed with hypo-thyroid with my number being 28.  Have been taking Armour Thyroid 30 mg 2xday and it had been controlling my thyroid problem.  4 months ago, went to thyroid doctor and she said my numbers were up again and raised my dose to 60mg 2xday.  4 days ago, had TSH checked at RE's office and it was <.01 when normal is between .5-5.  I'm so angry at the doc that raised my meds!
I'm scheduled for an IUI this Saturday mornining (2 days from now). We did Follistim/Ganirellix this month.
Could this severely hyperthyroid problem cause this IUI to not work????

Thanks for the comment, Well I spoke with him on the phone yesterday.  He said we were going forward with the IUI but to immediatly begin with 1/2 the dose I was on before.  I'm so concerned & upset with the original doctor that did this to me! ARG!  I;m going to see him tomorrow for the IUI so I will talk to him about it in depth!

You should definitely discuss that with your dr. Before you do the iui. I read somewhere you really want your tsh to be a 1 for pregnancy. Have you been having hyper symptoms?
