You all have been very helpful and informative. Lani, the article you found was very good. Although it is not in English...(just kidding!) I get the idea. Thank you much for posting it...

For now, the thyroid medications will stay in the cupboard; it is not worth the risk. For those of you who are currently taking these meds, the waters are still too muddy to know anything for certain. Both my family physician and oncologist gave me the green light to take a synthroid, even when I questioned how it might affect the breast cancer.
