My wife has been suffering from hypothyroidism for past 2 month's. Her TSH has increased after taking medication for a month (50 mcg eltroxine). Now doctor has suggested increased dosage of 100 mcg for 2 month's before going for another blood t test. Also suggested to go on low glycemic content diet. Wanted to check 2nd opinion
