Why would my FT4 change?
Hi, My thyroid has been ok for some years now, I have generally felt quite well. A recent GP blood test flagged up that my FT4 is at the bottom of the range. I am currently taking 120mg of NDT, I was on 240mg for many years but was told I must reduce my dosage as my TSH was 0.05. I reduced the dosage

Need Help with Diagnosis
I'm new to investigating thyroid issues, so I need some help from experts please. My husband has been suffering increasing fatigue for several years now, and he's always much colder than anyone else in the room. I understand that both of these can be symptoms of thyroid issues. Thyroid problems also

B12 and Ferritin results
Just had blood tests and results for B12 are 201 (110-900) and ferritin 59 (30-337). Am I right in thinking these should be higher?

high inflammation markers but no pain.
I was on Prednisolone for about 6 years. For the last year I have been on zero with no recurrent symptoms of PMR. I have recently had a number of blood tests as I had been to the doctor complaining about lethargy and tiredness. I remain active, going to the gym 3x a week although struggling somewhat

ANCA vasculitis & kidneys
Recently I developed red rashes (purpura) on my legs/thigh. Examined by a dermatogist as skin vasculitis I treated it with prescription meds and ointment. The rashes are now all gone in a week. But I recently learned that such a red rash "may" indicate ANCA vascultis in the glomeruli as a possible cause

update and advice please
First of all I want to thank the administrators and everyone who contribute to this forum. I look at it several times a week and so continue to learn about our shared condition from all the contributions. I need to take a bit of a sounding about my next steps – I think I know what I want to do, but

Doctor says T3 is unnecessary
I’ve got an underactive thyroid and have severe fatigue as well as other symptoms (dry eyes, weight gain, low immune system, eyebrow hair loss). I started levothyroxine about 3 years ago and am currently on 125mcg. Apparently I should have started treatment in 2014 after repeated infections and a

Teriparatide and low monocytes
I stopped Teriparatide on 11th April because of side effects. 4 days later I got a particularly bad cold that lasted a long time. On 2nd May I had a routine blood test, and it shows my monocytes are out of range 3.2 mole/L) - low. Has anyone had a similar experience?

Need more info on related symptoms
On the surface, I seem to be doing very well. Per earlier posts: Gleason 5+4, intraductal, possible perinueral spread, PET scan shows spread to lymph nodes only but as distant as the clavicle. Apparently these clavicle lymph nodes show up very pale on the scan and are too small to biopsy. But, treatment

Levothyroxine optimised?
Hi lovely people! My latest thyroid results were: TSH 1,27 (0,380-5,330μUI/mL) (18% through range) fT4 1,16 (0.38-1,40 ng/dL) (88% through range) fT3 3,79 (2,5-3,9pg/mL) (92% through range) Miraculously they finally tested fT3 for the first time, and I was so happy to see that I seem to be converting
