Brief Answer:
Increase the dose to 150 mcg if you were regular with medications
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HCM. I have gone through your questions and understand your concerns.
Your TSH while on treatment should be less than 4 miu/ml. Your TSH is high (18.2). So if you were taking your 125 mcg dosage regularly in morning empty stomach, you need to increase the dose now. You can take now 150 mcg daily for next 6 weeks and repeat the tests.
Hope I have answered your questions. If you have any further questions, I will be pleased to help you.
