Suppressed tsh 0.03 on Liothyronine, is this as much of a worry as consultant says please?
Bit of a long story sorry but I just need a moan with others who undestand. I restarted Liothyronine Jan 23 on nhs but my consultant will not endorse any increase whatsoever. I am just so tired most days it hurts, can't shift my weight unless I starve and unfortunately I don't sleep well so that doesn't

Why is my TSH so low when my T4 T3 are so low?
Hi all can some please explain why my TSH is low despite my T4 T3 being low. Correct me if i have got it wrong but i have come to understand that TSH is released by the pituitary gland to stimulate release of more thyroid hormones if levlels are too low. Since 1993 i dont have a thyroid so i am on

URGENT help needed please .. heart operations cancelled because of suppressed TSH
Hi I was supposed to have a pacemaker & then an ablation 6 weeks later at Liverpool heart hospital as part of the pre op they did a blood test TSH 0.001 they cancelled the ops & referred me urgently to an endo I’m due a telephone consultation with endo on the 5th September which is absolutely ridiculous

Keep taking the tablets!
I've just been down to the G.P. for my freebie B12 jab. (s.i. at home weekly) I told her that I've been feeling really tired lately, like I did before my P.A. diagnosis, when I was very anemic. So she says, ah, go and buy some B12 tablets from the chemist, that will make you feel better! Cue the lecture

Gluten or dairy free?
Hi everyone. I have posted previously about raised antibodies (Anti-TG 347 range <115, and Anti-TPO 53.6 range <34) Now having got my head around this, I can considering a gluten free diet to try to reduce the inflammation. My thyroid appears to be working normally - most recent results with a 9am

Help with not tolerating T3 Liothyronine
Hi again, This might sound like a stupid question but does Levothyroxine increase T3 or does it just increase T4 (and of course lowers TSH)? The reason I ask is that I have now been taking Liothyronine 5mcg once a day for over two weeks and I feel worse than just on Levothyroxine. If I increase to

Advice on latest thyroid test
I am seeing GP tomorrow regarding latest blood tests. Currently take 125mg levothyroxine. TSH 0.32 (-65%) 0.35-4.94 T4 15.3 (62.38%) 9-19.1 T3 4.3 (52.78%) 2.4-6.0 TSH was flagged as Abnormal so GP will mention that - it was 1.08 in Feb and 1.25 last October (same ranges) but no T4 or T3 tested.

Advice after recent blood test results please
I have been taking Levothyroxine for decades but only recently appreciated, after advice from this fabulous website, the correct way to undertake thyroid blood tests. After decades of iron deficiency I had an iron infusion a few months ago (therefore ferritin now high), I inject B12 regularly for Pernicious

Do you or someone you know have a diagnosis of Autosomal Recessive Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type-17?
If you or someone you know has a genetically confirmed diagnosis of Autosomal Recessive Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type-17 (SCAR17), you could take part in a new survey about starting a family. The charity Genetic Alliance UK, of which Ataxia UK is a member, are currently sharing a consultation survey

Low TSH and decreasing T4
Good morning. I've been having frequent blood tests as my TSH has been below range for quite some time. I had an appointment with the GP this morning and my TSH is even lower at 0.06 (sorry didn't get ref range). He advised that this indicates that I am over medicated, but said that he wouldn't decrease

Low phosphate again
Hi everyone, I'll try and keep this as short as I can!So I keep having episodes of upper back & chest pain. Then get random feelings like my heart stops, then it beats super fast then slows again. This happens multiple times in a row which I then go to a&e to get checked out. Every time it comes back
