are you 90-100% good at taking the tablets?
Apart from the first year I have been pretty good. Quickly learnt that I should take the tablet at the same time every day and have stuck to that routine consistently. The only major slip up I’ve had was October/Novemeber last year where I went away for a weekend, came back and left my tablet box in my bag. Went four day without taking a single thing. Would nornally have had my bloods taken about a month before just to amke sure they get to my consultant but left it as late as possible to try and avoid any issues.
Other meds and food can interfere with the absorption from the gut and mean that you get a variable effect
There was a long period of time where I was controlling my intake of iodine. I think it was on the Thyca website I read that it had an affect. I was pretty strict with that during treatments and for a fair while after but slipped back into normality after a while. I will have another look into this though.
I have a phone appointment with my doctor later so I want to ask him about my levels and ideally get all of them since diagnosis. I can’t quite remember my levels other than knowing they were fine.
Apparently thyroxine should be taken with water at least half an hour away from other meds and food.
I’ve always been told that taking other meds with my tablets is a bad isdea especially as some can be counter productive. I’m not so sure about the food unless it was rich in iodine I suppose.
