Pediatrician 's  Response
hypothyroid is a major health threat during childhood especially in a new born if missed the diagnosis. Level of damage will be known as time passes.
At present you are already taking treatment and therapy which shall be appreciated.
Continue with them.
You will have to be very persistent and patient with the child.
This will help her in future and with time she may attain almost normalcy as well.
I find this answer helpful
