blood results

i was diagnosed as hypothyroid in april or may of 2006.  actually at first they told me i was 'hyper' and gave me meds then checked again and said i was 'hypo'.  ever since i have been on a low dose of levoxyl (.25 mcg).  even through 2 pregnancies after that my dose has never been changed.  i just got my blood checked again and my results are "in range".  so does that mean i'm normal and do not need meds?  these were my results...

T3,  141
T-4,  1.5
TSH, 2.06

thank you!

no...  my doc didn't tell me to stop.  when i ran out the last time i didn't have anymore refils and it just kept getting increasingly harder for me to get to the doc to have my blood taken again.  one of my dd's was sick for like 2 months and i was going back and forth to the ped and getting her antibiotics and going back and forth taking my oldest to pre k and having a newborn... it just got away from me!

You didn't explain that, so probably you don't need medication anymore, you just need to repeat your analyses periodically to see if everything is OK or if you have symptoms. Who told your to stop the medication, was the doctor?

That means your having the right dose, so don't stop your medication
