the short term variability 0-88.5 seems strange. There is the possibility that the lab screws up the TSH assay, Although it is not likely that they are continually doing it.[/quote]
The 0.01 was in Nov06, so the doc decided to have me just stop taking the meds for a while; in Dec06, it was 0.00, but in Jan07 had gone to 88.5. He then put me on Levoxyl .050, and in Feb07 it was 47.9. Changed to .075 and in Mar07, it was 14.6. Changed to .100 and in Apr07 it was 0.66. With no med change, in May07 it was 0.12.
