How long between does changes?
when I started the Levo my
Tsh
was 84. I had the fatigue, extreme muscle pain weakness brain fog etc. I had my first follow up blood test and yesterday a call from the consultant.
Tsh
is now 34. He says 8 weeks is too soon to increase the dose and anyway now the GP needs to decide treatment!

Can anyone make sense of these blood results?
Since then, my
TSH
has risen sky high (as you might expect). However my T3 has also risen to 4.5 and so is now within range, with NO MEDS.
TSH
is 56 and so docs are adamant that I need to take something. Where can the T3 be coming from?

Tsh
and t4 have had a set back to the wrong side!! And my ferritin was only tested that’s really low!! Bear in mind I was on my monthly at the time of the test which didn’t help, doctors say it’s all normal!!

Neurological pain - carpal tunnel syndrome.
Time goes by and I’m tested biannually with
TSH
still high, but nothing changes. Then it happens. Pain in my extremities.

Achilles reflex
It’s not something I had ever thought about until I was diagnosed six months ago with a
TSH
of 42. I’ve since then improved in some ways. Anyway, quite recently I heard about the Achilles reflex and discovered that in my case, the reflex is absent, it just isn’t there.

Endocrinologist Recommendation
I had my
TSH
annual test done at my local surgery and it has increased to 4.13. My GP has said this is normal and isn’t interested in discussing further. I know they should be testing more than just the
TSH
. I have BUPA insurance through work.

Blood test results.. 🤦♀️
After receiving my new blood work with an
TSH
of 11.9 it says at the bottom of the letter
TSH
target on therapy for primary hypothyroidism = 0.30..4.50mU/L Consider dose adjustment if patient is compliant and there is no MALABSORPTION.. or interfering of other medication eg, ca, fe, and ppIs.

hyper to hypo and back
I was diagnosed with Graves in august from antibody test, t3, t4 and
TSH
. I was on methimizole 30mg daily since then. I started experiencing hypo symptoms about 2-3 weeks ago. Very cold intolerant, loss of appetite, constipation, sore and fatigue.

Need advice about T3 levels
The free T4 and the
TSH
are fine by the look of them. Im just wondering if that T3 level is a bit low.

Are these results okay?
Ft4 was 8.1 (normal range 7-17)
TSH
2.67 ( normal range 0.20- 4.40). I am awaiting a telephone consultation with the GP but am worried that as the results have fallen in the 'normal' range I may be dismissed. I have read on another forum that optimal Ft4 levels are at the upper end of the range?

thyroid results need advice
TSH
0.61. Range 0.27-4.2Mu/L Free T3. Range 3.3 - 3.1-6.8 pmol/L Free thyroxine 20.5 range 12-22 pmol/L Looking if these levels are good or should I be on a combination of t3/t4 instead of thyroxine. Had underactive thyroid for nearly 70 years.
