For as long as I can remember I have always had a borderline underactive thyroid. My previous doctor wouldn't prescribe thyroxine as she said it wasn't bad enough and that once you started taking it you had to take it for the rest of your life. I fairly recently moved and my new doctor has also mentioned the underactive thyroid and said that if my blood test in 2 months time still shows it to be the same then she would like me to have a 3 month trial of thyroxine. When i mentioned what my previous doctor had said she just dismissed it. Now I know medical advances are happening every day but I already take quite a lot of medication so I'm a little bit concerned. Has anybody else done this trial and what were your experiences.
Is it me or am I getting mixed messages
