See endocrinologist: If you have hashi, the risk of adrenal insufficiency is higher. But it is still quite low. There are a variety of useful tests, from simple electrolytes to a more definitive acth stimulation test. But how often do you test? Most important would be to see an endocrinologist who can help guide you in this.
