Ds has been having monthly blood tests to check the levels of a prescribed asthma medication. Last month his level was 4.6 which GP described as borderline, this month it's 1.4 but he has been offered no treatment just a repeat blood test as usual.
Is it normal for levels to fluctuate so rapidly? What would be the point where treatment is required? Ds has put on a lot of weight (not helped by steroids for asthma) and is regularly exhausted (again not helped by severe asthma) but couldn't this also be due to his low thyroxine levels?

Can I ask about thyroxine levels?
