Could you tell me what happens when doctor cuts down on thyroid medicine, can you have symptoms worse?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends why cut down: Thyroid medicine is only reduced if your blood test for TSH and T4 shows that you are getting more than your body needs and that's when your doctor may cut down your thyroid medicine.It will not make you worse.Talk to your doctor and know what your blood test shows.
