Hello, thanks for the query. I have seen the details mentioned. Please understand when one is on adequate dosage of levothyroxine tsh is maintained around 2 to 4 mu/l and t4 is in the normal range. Then all the hypothyroidism symptoms will be well controlled. As regards excessive sleeping the drugs used for her other condition tend to cause more drowsiness. If you have any questions please do come back. Thanks.
