I'd want another opinion. As you know the medications can be difficult to get right. An associate suddenly lost weight, had more energy and seemed happier She decided to change endocrinologists. He'd adjusted her thyroid medications.
Interestingly, low end thyroxine is usually the cause of slow motility in the intestine. You've had to pay close attention and figure it out yourself.

I do. My last tsh was elevated so I was taking med 6 days weekly she said go to 7. Labs due March 12.
Let’s say at my lab a normal tsh is 1 to 5 just using numbers and anything over 5 makes my hypo symptoms severe. But, even if around 3 I have issues. I need to be at 1 to relieve symptoms and at least help my bowels. I’ve had colon issues caused by anesthesia. Does this make sense to follow? It’s this sudden weight gain I can’t understand and it will not come off.
