thyroid

I was diagnosed with hypothyroid a few weeks ago. 2 lab test were done my doc said to start on medication and i ask to have another test done just to make sure before start my treatment. 2 weeks past i went to the doc and she said that i was hypothyroidism and I needed to start on medication right away. before leaving the clinic that day i have blood drawn for another test. The next day on March 23rd I started on medication so on April 2nd Doc call me to tell that the medication established my thyroid. i told her that she has not test me yet since i started on medication. If i am not hypothyroidism person and am taking synthyroid will worse my thyroid?

Tell me if I'm interpreting correctly...you had your blood drawn for the third time on March 22.  You started meds on March 23.  On April 2, the doctor called to tell you that your third test was "normal".  

How much Synthroid are you taking?

Do you have the actual lab reports from your doctor?
