Hi doctor, I was diagonized with hypothyroidism 2 years back with my tsh level being 4.59 whereas it should be between 0-4. I started with 25 mg n 2 months later my tsh levels increased to 5.4. I continued taking tablets for 8 months or so and den stopped gradually by once in 2 days or 3 days and so on. Its been one year since I stopped taking tablets and recently when I took tests my tsh levels were 1.29. My doctors told me once I start taking tablets I should take t continuously throughout my life. Since I stopped taking it will der be any problems in future. The skin on my neck enlarges and decreases as I gain and lose weight.
