Hi. Could anyone please advise. I was diagnosed hypothyroid in 2011 and I also have a 10 year history of anxiety which is being treated with fluoxetine. Thyroid results in December 2017 showed a Free T3 result "only just" in range as stated by my GP who says T3 would benefit me. TSH has been suppressed

Dilemma with my endo
Hello. This is my first post. I was diagnosed with primary hypothyroidism in May 2013. As the months went by I found myself up to 125 micro grams of Levothyroxine. I felt no better on the 125. I went through a very long spell of depression and I was feeling too depressed to look after myself. My parents

Mixed feelings about appointment
So I had my doctors appointment this morning following up blood tests (only the aforementioned TPO 117 iu/ml and TSH 2.2 (range 0.1-4.5) was measure unfortunately SeasideSusie). GP agreed to trying me on 75mcg levothyroxine on a trial basis which is good, and wants me in next week for bloods to check T3

T3 or not T3 and dealing with GP
Hello again. In my last post about my latest results greygoose pointed out that my TSH / FT4 / FT3 results suggested that I wasn't converting very well now and that I needed to introduce T3. I was going to go along the self-treating route but I'll be honest I can't stand any potential confrontation

Genetically I lack "optimal" conversion for

A friend (aged 44) has been unwell for quite a while and I would be grateful if you could look at her blood test results and see what you think.
