>One of my doctors told me that the evolution of kidney and thyroid abnormalities is NOT dosage dependent. I haven't done any research to corroborate this.
I have to believe that it is dosage dependent. At least the chance of developing these issues may be increased with higher dosages. There is no argument that higher dosages are more toxic. Isn't the therapeutic limit a dose that is very close to a level of toxicity where kidney damage is much much more likely? Maybe I am misunderstanding this.
