Perinatology Consult..Freaking out.

Organic Magnolia

Just finished having to make an appointment to have a Perinatology consult. My blood work came back showing I have a very under active thyroid. My doctor prescribed me an initial dose of 25 mcg of levothyroxine and said she would test my levels again in 6 weeks to see if the dose needs to be adjusted. In the mean time I haven't been taking the medicine this whole pregnancy and I'm freaking out and in tears about having to go see a specialist. I'm scared what problems this could cause. Anyone else had to deal with this before?
