thyroid and diabetes
by wwebster, Oct 10, 2008 09:56AM
Hi, I have type 2 diabetes and don't make enough thyroid. I had labs done that came back in the normal range but my doctor still upped my medication. I take levothroxin 50mcg 1xday and she upped it to 100mcg 1xday. My question is why would I need more if test were in normal range? TSH was 4.205 Triiodothyronine,free serum 3.4 and Thyroxine free direct {t4} 1.25

Recent studies have shown that TSH is better with levels between 1.0 - 2.0.
As your Doctor why?
