    NP here... you will likely need this for life. DO NOT make any dose changes on your own.. always consult with your provider first! Your provider should also be able to help you out with programs if affordability is an issue since this is an essential medication for you. Also.. I'm sorry that it sounds like this wasn't really explained well to you from the beginning.... it is generally not something that we repeat testing for once labs have verified abnormal levels.

    but you repeat testing to make sure that your levels are at the correct levels - i've been on levo for 7 years now and never gone more than 6 months without blood work - more often 4 months
