Mom is 83 and was diagnosed last year with Parkinson's. She is experiencing EXTREME fatigue and weakness beyond what the doc expects with Parkinson's. Last week her blood test results were:
TSH 0.903 (down from 1.32 18 mos ago)
Free T 4 1.06 (down from 1.13)
Her doc told her the results are excellent. She takes 75 mcg of Levothyroxin each day.
A few months ago my doc increased my meds even tho my numbers were better than Mom's because I told him my symptoms and he said that matters as much as the numbers. I'm feeling much better!
If this was your mom would you be satisfied with the docs response?
Thanks!
