That's great news! Although that is a very, very tiny dose on thyroid. There's nothing sub-clinical about your thyroid case though. It does sound like he is open minded.

He said that low doses are not harmful and you won't become dependent, so let's see if this doesn't help. If you still have issues, we'll try something else.



I hope what he meant was if you still have issues, he'd increase the dose. As Nancy said, it's a very, very small dose.

It's a good start.

I'm almost positive that's what he meant. He seemed very concerned about my discomfort. And he did say that he thought he may have to increase the dosage. But, through our discussion, we discovered that due to a multitude of allergies to meds, my system is wierdly sensitive. With the exception of pain relievers, I respond very well to very low doses of meds. He didn't want to go too fast for that reason.
