I have mine checked every 3 months and will be on medication for life. My thyroid is not coming back. It is important to be tested regularly. My dosage has increased over the years.
It appears I'll be on meds for the rest of my life too. Earlier this year the docs wanted to try to ween me off the meds, to see exactly what it is I have, by going every other day, well at last months check up it appears my levels were going back up so I went back to the daily schedule. I knew something was up because of my symptoms and tell the doc at every visit.
