Guest guest Posted March 11, 2002 Report Share Posted March 11, 2002 Kim, The goal is 0.10 right where you are! The only variable at this time is how you feel. Once at suppression, fine tuning can be done if you are too tired or too hyper.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2002 Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 I had my RAI on Feb 27th .My TSH level before RAI was 197.66(no meds at all) ..I have been on synthroid .15mg since March 2nd. I just had bloodwork for my TSH level and it was .479. Is that good or does it need to be lower? I can't get a hold of my Dr. he sent me my results in the mail and it said no change in medication. I'm still feeling a little tired and every now and then I get cold again. How long does the medication take to get through your system so I won't be tired or cold? Maybe I just need more exercise to get more energy. Also, when do you usually get your Tg level. Will I find that out when I have my next body scan in 5 months? Thanks in advance! in WV dx..Nodule,enlarged thyroid(left side),Nov. 30,2001 TT, Jan.21,2002 RAI 126.7 mCi, Feb 27,2002 PAP Cancer, Hashimoto Thyroiditis Synthroid .15mg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
