I will not go back to this Doctor anymore- I went to him feeling ok/good and now after seeing him me months later to horrible. He changed me from Armour thyroid to Synthroid and now I feel like the walking dead. He said my numbers are good and need to be lower even more and then I should be in the right range. If the right range and change of medicine is good for him to me feeling like I can't get out of bed and major foggy brain and major exhaustion, then I need/want to be abnormal. He will not listen to how you feel at all- it's all about the numbers to him, it HAS to be something else which is just madness. I have Hashimoto's and he should be working with me not against me. He only sees it one way and won't see it any other way. He was nice but I don't think he has any clue what he is talking about which is sad after all his training.
