I agree with goolarra; your TSH level was down "because" you are taking the medication. If you stop taking it, your levels will most likely go back up.
What if any symptoms do you have?
I agree about the FT3 and FT4 testing.
Remember that your current TSH level is a MEDICATED level. Your TSH is low because you are taking 200 mcg of meds every day. Take away the meds, and your TSH could rise dramatically.
Do you know the cause of your hypo? Have you ever been tested for TPOab and TGab to see if you have Hashimoto's thyroiditis? Hashi's is the most prevalent cause of hypo in the developed world. If you do have Hashi's, there's a very good possibility that you will be on meds for the rest of your life.
Hello,
The best way toknow would be to ask your doctor to test your FT3 and FT4. If these are at the high end of the range, then you may be able slowly reduce the medication (over a period of months) to see if your own thyroid can take over.
However, you should definitely not just stop the meds. If you were going to see you must reduce slowly and with testing.
I think you should because thyroid problems don't go away. They can be treated, but there is no cure. I'm on a thyroid medication too and my doctor told me it's something I have to stay on for the rest of my life. But I'm not 100% sure, so I would check with my doctor.
