If your internist feels your thyroid is unstable, trying to regulate on your own is likely not a good idea. Perhaps a second opinion would be reasonable if that's an option for you.
Not sure why you're taking 50mcg 2 days per week and 100mcg 5 days a week. Is that what the endo recommended? This regimen is a total of 600mcg per week, which averages 86mcg per day. Synthroid is available in an 88mcg dosage form.
> Azalea I tried to when saw the internist asked him if he would manage my thyroid said no too unstable thyroid. Never actually see the endo just get blookwork and then a call from the nurse saying what he says to do. Taking a half of 100mcg two days a week and full pill other five. Anyway I can regulate my own? Love Phillipa
