Endocrinologist and Levothyroxine dosages

[Guest guest]

Firstly, apologies for my absence on the board lately. I've been busy

the past week trying to fit everything in, but I did see the

endocrinologist last week (Her name is Josianne Vassallo... not sure

if any of you here know of her).

I took my list of symptoms and past blood results with me, and for the

time being I'm to stay on the Levothyroxine, but she has increased my

dose from 100 mcg to 125mcg. Ultimately, she would like to increase it

to 150mcg daily as I'm still quite hypo to say the least!

What I don't understand though, is the dosage patterns... She has told

me to take 125mcg daily, but to increase it to 150mcg on Monday's,

Wednesday's and Friday's. Now, excuse my ignorance please, but I

thought that by having a different dose everyday that you'll only

confuse your body even more, as it doesn't have a steady supply of

hormones? Has anyone here on the board heard of such dosage patterns?

In the mean time, I'm increasing gradually from 125mcg daily, as I

know how much my body loves a routine.
