My dr always changes my med when they give me the lab results.  What does your dr say and what other tests run, with what results?  

There are a lot of people on here that know a lot more about this than I do, but seems to me that you should talk to dr for instructions.

Most likely your doctor suggested a decrease in your meds basing this on your lab.

I would think he/she would elimate the 200mcg dosage - at the very least.

What if any symptoms are you having? What does your Free T3 lab test say?

My Doctor said I should stay on the same dosage, is this correct?

Free T3 is 5.0 pmol/l (2.5- 6.0)

I'm not feeling ok..have been having some weird symptoms

Your TSH is at 0.02 - your doctor should be telling you to decrease you meds. Isn't he/she telling you that?

Your Free T3 is at a good range.

What are your symptoms?

Where does your doctor want you for cancer suppression?

Listen to your doctor.

Oh.... is there cancer involved here?

That is not mentioned
