I know that hyper means it is producing too much hormone and if I remember correctly Eric's TSH is around .6, so he is very close to hyper which is why I said he did NOT want to take synthroid. The problem is he doesn't know what his TSH was before treatment, making it difficult to determine if it is really a thyroid problem or not.
Take care,
Eileen
