I have Graves' disease so my thyroid levels have been monitored for several years and I was treated in 2005 with radioactive iodine. My old endocrinologist was very particular that my thyroid levels stayed right in the middle of the range - not on the high end or the low end, but smack dab in the middle. She also felt that the TSH number was not enough and always ran a T3 and T4 level as well.
