Don't take my levothyroxine and no thyroid

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi guys! Please sorry to my english. If I won't take my levothyroxine with no thyroid gland, how long it will take effect on blood tests? What if I won't take my levothyroxine 3 days before blood tests? And one week before blood tests? Thanks!

    Hi, can you explain why you would want to do this? If you have no thyroid gland, and you don't take the levothyroxine, then your body will suffer. Your blood results will come back abnormal and the doctor will not be able to give you the correct dosage of medication, which will in turn affect your body badly. I don't understand why you want to do this.
