I’m concerned that I’m up somewhere around 15-20 pounds. So far, it is OK, but I don’t think the pdoc ordered full panel. I will ask my reg doc to run it full panel for thyroid.
My pdoc approves of me dropping Seroquel to see if it helps. I was only on a low dose for sleep, but it was a b**** to get off just the 25 mg. I had to slice the pill in quarters. I just got off of it a week or two ago.

That was 13 years ago. I am in my forties and weigh what I did in middle school now. More than dropped the weight. My dose of Levothyroxine has to be adjusted every couple of years and it's a very difficult adjustment every time. I never took that low of Seroquel. I started on 75, I think, for sleep and went to 150 a month later. I take 200 now, down from 300. I also weighed 275 when I started it. I was already losing weight when I started Seroquel though, but only Tony amounts per year. I didn't start exercise until last year.
