Thyroid meds are easily affected by other things you might eat which is why your doctors ask you to take it before food. This means if you have food, it doesn't absorb so well and your blood levels may not be high enough. If you really want to take your meds with breakfast, or at night, it is just a matter of working with your doctor, to ensure your blood levels don't change. If they do, your dose needs adjusting. Simple. The trick is, once you have the routine and the correct blood levels, stick to the routine.

So here is my question: When should I get Alex's thyroid levels checked and how many nuked patients need thyroid meds? He completed radiation at the end of August last year (5 months ago).
