The saga continues....

I saw my endoc. this morning for the first time since my surgery.  She didn't have me do bloodwork ahead of time so I got a lab appointment for tomorrow morning to get that done.  At that point, she'll check the levels and see if I need a dose change.  Apparently, my 112mcg is about in the middle of the average dose that she gives.

I did talk a little about my voice problems and we're going to still wait it out for a while longer.  I saw the surgeon a couple of weeks ago and he checked my vocal cords again and will refer me to the voice clinic if I choose to go that route.  He did mention that it could take 6 months to a year to get it all back.  I'm also in contact with a former voice teacher of mine who wants to see me and evaluate my situation.

Update:

I finally got my test results in the mail today.  Just as I suspected, I'm still in the hyper range with the TSH at .05.  The endoc. is lowering my med dose from 112 to 100 mcg.  I'll go back for more bloodwork in 6-8 weeks.
