What are the risks or not taking my meds. for hypothyroidism? |
I have had hypothyroidism for about 4 or 5 years now and I was just diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease. I take 125 mcg of synthroid. Is that alot? What happens if I quit taking it other than my symptoms come back? My sister in law has Hashimoto's disease. If you quit taking your meds, you will eventually get really sick and die. You can't live without your thyroid. Synthroid gives you the chemicals that your thyroid produces. Why would you quit taking the medication? You can't possibly be thinking rationally here. Your meds are about average also. You are just taking something that naturally occurs in most people's bodies, yours just doesn't make it any more. So if you want to get sick and probably die, just don't take your meds. But I suggest you talk to your doctor who will hopefully talk some sense into you! Do NOT stop taking this medication with out talking to the doctor. It can kill you!! You die, so go for it, leave the meds on the table. One thing you should not just stop taking this medication. I've seen people take 200 mcg of synthroid. Your taking it because your thyroid is not working properly. You should talk to your doctor before you stop taking your thyroid medication. This regulates many things in your system. You could feel tired and moody. I would ask before I stopped. |
