While the Dr. Allow you to ask plenty of questions, during my course of thyroid treatment, my view of my treatment seemed to lack common sense, due to being over medicated with managing thyroid surgery problems afterwards, with a slightly low blood calcium level in nov , which in turn, before I finally got my lab results, my calcium supplementation was increased 2x that resulted in me experiencing extremely high blood calcium levels, all on the stated basis that my labs were low. :-/ yeh ..... anyways. needless to say, I would advise anyone seeking treatment for anything beyond diabetes to go elsewhere if you do not want a headache, as I have done so and am much happier.
