I am close ... 1.8 on 75mcgs  .. 50mcgs would probably come close to a tad over 2.0 for me .. it goes by weight and height I think as part of the mix for dosing along with your thyroid disorder.

I'm on 50mg and my TSH is 1.92.  

When I was diagnosed it was 2.0 and my TPO was 86.5 and I started at 25mg...My TPO increased to 146 even though my TSH dropped a little so the dr increased me to 50mg...

FYI...the other day my daughter asked me what was "wrong" with me...since lately I have been energetic and able to get stuff done and I'm not sitting on the couch all day...she's 20 and can't remember that I used to be full-energy-person...I bless my dr every day for listening to my symptoms and looking beyond the numbers and not waiting for me to get sicker before treating me!!!
