bubles089 35 Posted November 16, 2012 I have hoshimotos as well, I am on 200 a day but need to lower that dose because I'm hyper now and I get horrible hot flashes from it. My endocrinologist said as I loose weight my synthroid dose will drop. It is part weight based and part function based. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
