It was reduced because it was too high.
When some yrs. later it turned out to be
too low, my dr. decided that a sub-clinical
low was better than too high; i did ask
for a higher dose 0.120, but because i got
heart palpitations the first day i tried it,
he told me to go back to the lower one.

The thyroid has been a problem - when they
tried to fix it i got something like thyroid
storm - it was awful (sweats, 2 hrs sleep
every night for 6 months, panic, heart attack
feelings, hunger, palour). It was a miracle
that my dr. finally got me stable.
