A member asked:
I have had my thyroid removed. if i smoke methamphetamines will it affect my synthroid (thyroxine) dose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: but that's the least of your problems. If you're smoking methamphetamine you must have a death wish. You won't need your Synthroid (thyroxine) at all after you're dead.
