> Tell my endo that a level in the middle is good as the new standard is between l-2. I seem to do better weight wise on a higher thyroid level. Top of normal range around 5. The others I know nothing about. Excercise maybe helps too. Love Phillipa
yes but most p-docs are not even measuring thyroid period. They give out meds and tell you weight gain is a possible side and never even bother to meaure the thyroid when the patient is pouring on the pounds.
