High TSH level (32)
I am having high TSH. Last week I had taken the TSH test and it was 32. Before this also I had taken a TSH test (in middle of April) and it was 99. I had already been diagnosed with high TSH in 2014 and have been taking 37.5 mcg thyronorm but I had missed my medicine for a couple of weeks this March and hence TSH level was 99. Now I am taking 50 mcg thyronorm and I will be taking a blood test this Friday. Please explain if I should continue with 50mcg thyronorm or lessen or increase the dosage.

You should wait for atleast 8 weeks before repeating the thyroid test to know the effect of the changed dose. You should continue with the same dose till then ie. 50 mcg
