I'm 20 years old and my diagnosis is Congenital Hypothyroidism. I've been on Synthroid since I was 2 weeks old; and I'll be on it for the rest of my life. I was just curious as to what would happen if I just decided one day to stop taking it. I know that if I had gone any longer w/o it when I was an infant, or even was never on it...I'd be either dead or seriously mentally retarded.
Thanks.
