    If testing shows you have a low thyroid count, your doctor will prescribe Levothyroxine or the brand name: Synthroid. I have been told it is better to take the brand name medication because the dosage is more consistent than with the generic.

    Continue to take your iron for your anemia. Take your thyroid medication as prescribed and go back to doctor in a month or so to have your blood checked again to make sure your dosage is correct.

    It will be an ongoing, lifetime situation. Try to get used to that and remember that it sometimes takes awhile for the medication to take effect, and also to get the dosage right for your body.

    Good luck. Remember you must be a participant in your health care. Ask questions, write them down so you can remember when you go to doctor. Pay attention to your body so you can tell your doctor of any complications or side effects you might experience.

    the clarification as to why there is an more advantageous popular practitioner suicide fee than popular inhabitants often has to do with melancholy (i.e. long artwork hours, little/no kinfolk time, etc.). i think of this is humorous the way you write that "all of us make errors", yet then make your self clean that your question does not communicate with what number lives docs did no longer save. Get your information promptly. purely simply by fact there are oftentimes around 4 hundred-500 docs who kill themselves each twelve months does not inevitably advise that all of them had some sort of to blame experience of right and incorrect and as a result they killed themselves. Oh, and by using ways. Dentists have an more advantageous suicide fee than docs. i ask your self what they are feeling so damn to blame approximately.
