I am continuing taking my thyroxine in the morning, washed down with a glass of water and a cup of tea (with milk) usually about half an hour before breakfast.
Breakfast for me is usually porridge with milk, followed by a cup of tea, again with milk. And mid morning, so often within 4 hours of taking my thyroxine, I often have a milky coffee.
I plan to continue this regime which has served me very well for 21+ years. We are all different and must do our own thing, but I'm afraid I take no notice of thoughts that we are not supposed to take it within so many hours of this or that unless it specifically comes from my GP or my pharmacist.
