It took me about a year to get stabilized. Even though I’ve been on the same dosage for about 2 years I swear there are months that I’m toward the low end of the scale. Then I’ll feel normal for a month or two. My mom has been on synthroid for about 20(?) years and has needed her levels adjusted a few times. Who knows, maybe the body’s need for it changes as time goes on. Have you taken any herbal pills for weight loss or any thing like that? Maybe that effects how you absorb your med. I was told it was best NOT to take a multivitamin containing iron at the same time as I take my synthroid because iron can affect how the body absorbs it. No medical proof on my part but maybe someone out there has heard the same? Julie
