I did take the t4 two hours before as it was suggested I try this, but my t4 was also above range in March 24 following all the protocols on here for tests (both monitor my health tests). GP test in between these showed

Should I push for an ultrasound of my thyroid? I have primary hypothyroidism without Hashimoto's...
Hi guys, I'm back! 4 months ago I asked to go up on my dosage of levothyroxine (I was on 50mcg) but the GP declined. However, I had a blood test again yesterday and my TSH has gone up more, and my T4 dropped more, so they are letting me go onto 75mcg - result! As of the last blood test (yesterday), my

Taking Omeprazole with Levo
I had a total thyroidectomy in 2016 after having a thyroid storm……I have been on various doses of Levo over the following years both up & down doses (at one point only 50mcg per day!)…. I am now taking 75mcg per day & mostly don’t feel too bad….although medical professionals are trying to lower dose

I don’t know the scenario of these results
Hi I have just been given my TSH which is 0.20 & then the T4 11.10mcg/dl I didn’t ask for it. The lab obviously took the initiative. My GP note only said don’t worry we will test again in 8 weeks ? What would I worry about ? I have not been told what to do surely an adjustment ? My face is flushed

Confusing result
These are my most recent results. Blood was taken first thing in the morning, fasted and before I took my medication. The lab ranges are also shown above. How can my tsh be so low and my t3 still be so low/not optimal? I'm on 150 levothyroxine. Am I right that I might need some t3? And if so, would
