So far I am fine. I had been on 88 mcg. But had Synthroid 50 mcg in storage. So I began to wean myself off of Synthroid by going down gradually, doing 3 weeks of 50, then 3 weeks of 44 (slicing the 88s) then 3 weeks of 25 (slicing the 50s). I am in the midst of this part now and am feeling fine. In conjunction with less Synthroid I have changed my diet. That started about 6 months ago & I have lost 14 pounds by quitting carbs, sugar, most dairy, and packaged food. I now eat lots of veggies and legumes and a bit of lean meat with fruit as dessert. However, the biggest must-do is adding a bunch of supplements. I take Vitamin A, K, C, D3, Selenium and Zinc, and a Thyroid Supplement with natural herbs like Ashwagandha, Iodine, etc. which I actually bought on Amazon but the Village Apothecary in Maryland also sells it online.

let me know if you try going off the Synthroid too. I wish you the best in your endeavor. I wrote in another reply the things I am doing, so keep me informed if you try. It’s a little scary but anything is better than being beholden to the wacky conventional, invasive doctors.

I agree whole heartedly!! I have an appt with a homeopathic dr on Monday she is going to help to get off this medication. I'm just a bit nervous to do it without her help I am praying my thyroid starts doing what it is suppose to so with out the synthetic medication. I often wonder if I should have even been on it l these years.... I was so young then and just did what I was told lol! I'm a bit older now and wiser 😌 and kinda like taking control of my health myself.
