Getting the straight talk on hormones

I have hypothyroidism. I was diagnosed over 15 years ago and have since been taking various doses of synthroid. I've been told over the years that I can't ever get off of my meds b/c I've trained my thyroid not to work! What gives? I've also heard from natural practitioners that I can. So, what's a hypo girl to do?
