    Hi Bobbi

    Thanks for your reply. So, if I understand correctly, I don’t need to be worried at all about the antibody level, but more about the dosage of medication.
    To clarify that a bit, I was put on Diotroxin in 2008 by my GP coz it seemed I reacted negatively to the Eltroxin ( I came out in a rash after he doubled my dosage). Since the change I have been having a hard time balancing the TSH levels.
    FT4 and FT3 are in range, but the TSH is too low. So, the Diotroxin (90 mcg t4 and 10mcg t3) dosage is too high then? Am I correct? That is then also why I am having all these hyper symptoms?
    I changed GP because of this and the new dr changed me back to Eltroxin, but a lower dosage, .05mg per day.

    Would a change in dosage and type of medication make a difference then?
    There was a few weeks ago when I ran out of tablets and could not get more ( I did not take any for 2 weeks) and then my TSH went up to .05. ( tested after I took it again for 1 week) Slight increase but still.
