in reply to: Is it normal to alternate dosage like this? #1184506

From my experience definitely not unusual. 10mg is never quite enough and 15mg is too much, so currently I do 15mg Mon-Fri and 10mg Sat and Sun. Since starting Estrogen replacement I have found I need to watch the labs a little more closely and don’t appear to need quite as much methimazole. So may need to adjust this dosage again in a few weeks. Definitely becoming a bit more of a juggle as I get older. I understand now why the endo said “I would have an interesting menopause”.

in reply to: Had labs this weekend should get results this week–tired of Methemazole #1172085

I’ve been on Carbimazole for just over two years and its still a battle to keep the lab results in the normal range. Adjusted the dose three weeks ago and obviously it was too little and now have bad T4 and T3 results and racing heart. The thought that crossed my mind was “I’ve fought a good battle but am I ever going to win”. Is it our personalities that make us not want to give up and keep fighting?
