I am taking thyrox tablet 37. 5 mg from october 2014. Before that I was taking 25 mg from 2013 march. Recently I tested my tsh twice. One in the morning 7 am (after one hour of thyrox tablet consumption). My report came 10. 6(high). Another I did next week at 5pm(tablet taken in the morning at around 10 am). The report came 4. 7(normal). What to do now? shall I continue same thyrox tablets or what?
