I've just received results back from Blue Horizon. 48 years old been on levothyroxine for many years, I think 10. See below for results. I can understand the TSH level and I think that is ok, also understand that the TPO is high, but do not know what that means and if other levels are ok. THey all

Subclinical Hypothyroid & Hashimotos
Hi, I'm new to the forum and hoping I can get some advice on my blood tests and the best way forward. A bit of background first. My Dad was hypothyroid from about the age of 50, although never tested for Hashimotos. My younger sister has recently been diagnosed with Hypothyroid & Hashimotos, after virtually

Supplements and blood test levels along with over 50 and iron question
I’ve searched the forum, but haven’t been able to find much regarding over age 50 and iron. I would appreciate any input. I’m 55 years old and have Hashimoto’s and hypothyroidism. I have supplemented with iron and a high level multivitamin with iron for years. I have just now dropped the iron supplement

Should I add T3?
I've been on T4 for 15 yrs (250mg). Results of new test: TSH 0.961 FT4 23.3 (12-23) FT3 2.92 (3.1-6.8) TPO 9.64 TGA 17.6 Folate, B12, Ferritin, D all good. I feel ok but should I take T3 because of poor conversion? I seem to need more clothing than most people to keep warm. 2 years ago, when I started

Essential to test RT3, and results questions
I’ve done a couple of private thyroid blood tests through Thriva (no hypothyroid diagnosis but many symptoms for years).

Hashimotos and high heart rate
I have high anti tpo (~500), TSH ft3, ft4, everything else is normal, but my resting heart rate is 100-105 and standing 120-125, has anybody found a connection between Hashimoto's and high heart rate even with all correct thyroid tablets.

GP won't test outside TSH and T4
The online kits are a bit too pricy for me to buy. Is there any way I can get my stubborn GP to test for T3, fT3, fT4, TgAb and TPO? My GP insists that TSH and T4 are all that need to be screened/monitored and I've never actually been diagnosed with Hashimoto's etc. The moment my thyroid goiter and cysts
