High free T4
Been on Thyroxine for 17 years. Recent bloods show TSH at 0.58 ( I feel better in this range ) but Free T4 has been flagged at 25.6. GP said results must be wrong and is retesting next week. I took my meds 6 hours before bloods, is this why the reading is high? or any other suggestions why free T4

Fluctuating T4?
Hi all, Would really appreciate some advice on fluctuating free T4 levels - having had a dose increase from 50 to 75mg end of September 23, T4 finally went up to 16.7 (range 11.50 -22.7) in December - I know this still needs improvement and I still have the full range of symptoms but doctors wouldn't

Liver, hyperthyroidism, carbimazole
I have been on 15mg of carbimazole for a month to treat my Graves relapse. I started on 30mg and felt worse than being hyper so my endo said I could take half. It has taken me about a month to feel slightly better. I am improving although my insomnia is still challenging. I had a blood test this

Thank you!
Hello all, I've been lurking for a while and just want to thank you for all the advice you give on here. I'm so impressed by the time and effort you put in.

secondary infertility deciding when to stop
So I’m very lucky to already have the most wonderful child ! We’ve been trying to have another baby for over 2 years. I’ve had failed IUIs and then did a round of IVF where I had x4 embryos at day five which I was told were all ‘good’. Anyway none of them stuck x3 negatives and I had x1 chemical pregnancy

LOW TSH WITH STABLE T4
Hello, can anyone tell me whether it matters when your TSH is low? Mine is 0.04 mU/L and T4 is 16.7 pmol/L? My thyroxine has been reduced from 100mg to 87.5 mg and the TSH has increased from 0.03 mU/L to 0.04 mU/L in 6 weeks. I had a bone scan done on the advice of a private doctor and this came
