Stopped thyroxine for 10'days
My wife had TSH levels of 10 and she started taking thyroxine 75mg since last one year. Recent tests showed her TSH levels at 1. So we thought of stopping the medication for sometime. She didnt take medicine for 10 days and she started feeling fatigue. So she is restarting it again now. How long will it take to go back to her normal self?

Abrupt stop will cause sudden depletion of thyroxin. Already you were on high dose. It was a bad idea. Restart the dose with 50 mcg for 4 months and recheck ft4 tsh
