Results after 14 weeks on Armour
Hello, so I've been on Armour for 14 weeks now and these are my current bloods: TSH - 0.007 T4 - 13.7 (12-22) T3 - 6.3 (3.3 - 6.8) My doctor (private specialist) said ideal bloods on Armour would be T4 12-14 and T3 5.5-6.5, and TSH would be suppressed. So going by that, it seems my bloods are pretty

please help with figuring out what is wrong
I posted recently that my Mom’s Hemoglobin is dropping, same as RBC and Hemocrit, while MCV and MCH are high. She was diagnosed with Macrocytic Anemia but doctors can’t figure out the cause. The hematologist did bone marrow biopsy, PET scan and over 50 blood test, all normal except for Copper and Ferritin

Surprised about bloods this morning

T4/T3 converter
How I know if I’m a good converter. I have low cortisol all day long and below is my lab test. Please advise. Taking T4 70 mcg/T3 18 mcg. I struggle to add T3 even in small doses.

Early embryo transfer (Day 1 transfer) 2WW
Hi everyone, I don’t hear a lot online about embryo transfers that are done early on. So it’s hard to know whether I should be expecting an early pregnancy test to work or not. This round of IVF I ended up with 1 embryo so my clinic put it straight back in the day it fertilised. The cycle before

T3 starting dose too high?
Hi all, looking for some advice. Have had hashi's for 3 years and my GP has had me undermedicated for all of that time (25mg Levo rising to 50mg after about 1. years and only 7 weeks ago he allowed me to increase to 75mg at weekends and 50mg during the week). My results in February were: FT4: 14.6

Hi I was formally diagnosed with Graves’ disease in May 23 . In reality I’d probably had it a while as I’d been in denial about thyroid eye symptoms for a few months but it was the increasing intolerance to hot weather that drove me to the GP. At diagnosis my T4 was around 60, T3 around 25 and I was

Adrenal Insufficiency or GCA or both?
I have looked at the FAQs but cannot readily find an answer so here goes.By way of quick update I restarted pred about 3 months at 10mg because my PMR symptoms came back. I have been tapering at 1mg every 5 weeks using Dorset Lady's slow taper (thank you again). I am shortly to reduce from 7mg to 6.5mg

Multiple conditions leading to burnout
Hi everyone, Any constructive advice welcome. To give context, I have PCOS, endo, degenerative discs, lymphocytic colitis and my gynae now thinks I have adenomyosis too. I also suffer with frequent migraines. My consultant has recently advised I am likely to need a hysterectomy and has discussed injections

Ft3 test
Would you test ft3 6-8 weeks after being on the desired dose of t3 medication to see if you are optimal or need to increase?

Blood Tests
Hello I am 2 years post menopausal. I had blood tests done recently and my Alkaline Phosphate & Serum Gamma GT level have come back out of normal range. Has anyone else had this? I’m wondering if menopause is linked to higher Liver readings.

Out of range low T4 but normal TSH and T3
Hi all I was on Levothyroxine for sub clinical hypothyroidism during pregnancy. My son is now 4 months and I have been undergoing multiple blood tests to establish what the course of action should now be. My TSH and T3 are within range but my T4 is very low. I will attach results and my ranges to this

Reference ranges
NHS use a range of 7.86 - 14.41 pmol/L when measuring t4. However, every time I've had a private test they use much higher reference ranges of roughly 12-22 pmol/L. Even weirder, my t4 always comes back much lower when NHS tested, and higher when privately. Therefore, it always comes back within range

T3 fallen
I have my private Endo appt next month. Did my MMH blood test last week but as I bought the pack 5 months ago I wondered if there could be a problem with the results. My previous blood test in Feb after starting T3 just before Christmas showed my T3 had risen to 5.9 (3.1-6.8) from 3.9 and my hypo symptoms
