Hi everybody, I hope I'm not joining the wrong group, maybe you can help me.
Went to my doctor in Nov. 2008 for annual checkup and routine blood work.
My TSH came back 5.604, the doctor put me on Levothyroxin 50 mcg. once a day, it's generic for Synthroid, also notice my calcium serum was 11.1.
Was just wondering if anybody could give me any information, what these readings mean.
Thanks so much!
