I've stopped taking thyronorm for about 15 days now, and I'm wondering if there might be any effects from doing that? Should I start taking it again or maybe get anything checked out first? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Stopping Thyronorm (thyroid medication) for 15 days can lead to hypothyroidism symptoms reappearing, such as fatigue, weight gain, and mood changes; consider restarting the medication as prescribed and scheduling a blood test to check your Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) levels to ensure they return to normal; consult your doctor for personalized advice.

I've been taking Thyronorm 125 for a while since my TSH was really high at 43. Lately, my TSH levels are back to normal, but now my T4 levels are higher than they should be. I'm just wondering what this might mean? Should I be worried about these changes?
