Forget all about the measurement units or ranges. any competent endocrinologist knows that post radiation cancer patients SHOULD BE BACK AT THEIR ORIGINAL PRE CANCER LEVELS. If they are not, then it's time for thyroid medication.
I was not only extremely tired but also froze for two years, even in summer, and kept a winter coat on in air conditioned places yet I was constantly told: "Your TSH levels are normal" and I did not ask for the actual numbers or test results. Turns out however there is controversy over what is the right TSH level with labs having a 5.5 or a 4.5 as okay even though endocrinologists who went to Medical school the 21st Century conbsider 3.0 as the highest acceptable level. Before TX, I had a TSH of 1.6 and after TX it shot up to 4.3. Now that I am "on the pill", I am finally warm again. Plus my energy is back
My TSH level went down to 3.04 on 25 mcg ,2.17 on 50 mcg and now 1.73 on 75 mcg. Now it's 1.48 since I switched to taking it at night (but that only works if you have an empty stomach and no night time snacks)
It really does make a difference.
