Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these conflicting medical advice. Based on the initial results, there was no justification to put you on this drug. I don't know what reasons were considered to make this decision but then it need to be revisited and more so if you do not have symptoms of low thyroid function.

I hope this addresses your query fully. Feel free to ask for clarifications and more information if need be. I wish you well. Thanks for utilizing our services, we very much appreciate it.
