[QUOTE="Antisosa, post: 113944, member: 16226"] Is it safe to get off Thyroid Meds cold turkey? I have been taking them since August 2017 and I do not feel any difference, and want to stop taking them. I feel like it’s a waste of money. Defy medical put me on them.. below are my labs. Initial labs in August before taking the medicine: Free T4 1.03 ng/dl 0.61-1.80 ng/dL FREE T3 1.9 pg/mL 2.0 - 4.4pg/mL TSH 1.040 u[IU]/mL 0.300 - 5.600u[IU]/mL Defy Dr put me on .5 grain of Nature-thyroid and moved up to 1.5 after a month of so. Below are my next results from December 17’: T4 Free 1.11 -- Std Range .82-1.77 T3 Free 2.7 -- Std Range : 2.0-4.4 TSH 0.014 u[IU]/mL Standrd: 0.300 - 5.600 u[IU]/mL So I have been taking 1.5 grain every morning. *The rest of my results are all in good health: Test Total 1,126 ng/DL -- Std Range 264-916 Free test: 236 -- Std Range 52-280 E2 26 -- Std Range 8.0-35 I would think tapering off would be a better choice but I only have capsules of 1.5 grain.
