TSH suddenly high years after TT
Has anyone experienced their managed dose no longer being enough? I was doing well about 6 months ago on 100mcg but since then my TSH has risen to 12 - I usually start feeling bad at a 3 or 4 because normal for me is around 1.5. A TSH of 12 has had me in a week-long migraine. We upped my dose about 2-3 weeks ago to 137. This is the highest dose I've ever had to be on. I'm not seeing any improvement but I know that it takes about 6 weeks for full effect. My concern is how quickly and drastically my numbers changed. I've been on generic for a while and have been taking it as prescribed, 45mins-1hr before coffee or breakfast like I always have. I've read some people have changes in their GI that change absorption. Has anyone dealt with this? If so, how did you know it was an absorption problem?
