It is not that. The point is that a drastic reduction in the TSH level in two months could be a Lab error.
You will take a reduced dosage for two months and get your TSH level again. That will determine the next course of treatment.

The reason for your TSH levels to drop from 5.46 to 0.04 is due to eltroxin .
The dose would've been slightly higher for you , that's why doctor asked you to reduce the dose.
Eltroxin is not used for low TSH levels ma'am
