This is a severe hypothyroidism. He absolutely need to be on medication. While may not be immediately life-threatening patients can go into a coma with this severe hypothyroidism. You should go into any walk-in clinic rather than an ER for this. Good luck.
Am very glad to hear that you got some initial meds. It is critical for you to be on your meds long term and consistently.
Hope you are feelign much better soon.
Best wishes
thank you very much for your response. I did finally get a ten day script and am working on getting into another dr. to have it continued.
Hello, the ER doctor is wrong. Hypothyroid is life threatening, particularly if you don't have a thyroid.
You need a scrip for your synthroid. You need to be taking your meds again. Please do not delay. Go to any clinic or ER until you can get one. It would probably help if you have a copy of your old script to show them.
