Is it OK if T4 is 12.2, and Free T4 14.9 please? Does the T4 affect how u feel or is the Free T4 the important element?
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help please?I'm not on thyroid meds, but keep eye on thyroid due to Tsh up & down. Thyroid tested at Drs April,but 9.30/non fasting due to being fitted in for neuro symptoms for b12. Results then were TSH 1.53 (0,35-4.94) T4 12.2 (9-19.1) I've now done yearly fingerprick check

Should I ask to go up on my levothyroxine dosage?
Hi everyone! As suggested, I followed everyone's advice regarding the blood test, and also I've been taking the levothyroxine earlier (leaving more of a gap before eating or taking other medications) for a month, and my latest results are: Serum free T4 level 12.0 pmol/L [7.9 - 14.4] Normal 05 Apr

Serum ferritin too high?
Can anyone tell me whether 286 is too high for a serum ferritin level? I had an iron infusion a few months ago and this is my new level. I have been feeling very anxious, having panic attacks, not sleeping etc... and was wondering if it could be because of this? At the same time of the infusion I

https://jeffreydachmd.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Broda_Barnes_Solved_Riddle_Heart_Attacks.pdf I've started to digest this copy of Broda Barnes book....it helps explain many of the things I've suspected about thyroid hormones...and validates my near obsession with T3! Thanks to kiefer who posted

autoimmune and Hashimotos
I feel like I am on a one woman crusade in Scotland to get Hashimotos recognised for what it is an autoimmune disease, I now have four autoimmune diseases Hashimotos, Pernicious Anaemia, Coeliac disease, Hyperparathyroidism, and am being referred for testing for rheumatoid arthritis. I get treatment

Swallowing difficulty, have to chew meds.
About a year ago, I began getting my thyroid meds stuck in my throat. All my other meds, vits and minerals, being much larger, seem to go down ok, as they seem to have sufficient "weight" behind them. My magnesium capsule is the size of a suppository 🤣 and I can swallow [i]that[/i] without a problem

Has anyone had improved thyroid labs or reduced their thyroid medication, after optimising their ferritin, B12, folate, or vitamin D?
I'm currently on a bit of a mission to try and get my ferritin, B12, folate and vitamin D to optimal levels. I'd love to hear anyone's stories or experiences of getting these nutrients up, and then finding their TSH, T4 and T3 levels improve and/or they have to reduce their thyroid medication. It would

Tweaking T3
Hello, Sorry to post yet again. I've gotten so much advice already and I will most probably have a go at the single dosing of T3 in the fall, but for now I have to make due with my split doses. I was feeling a bit off lately: increasing pain (back, leg, muscle, knee) in my right leg. Something that

Hashimoto's blood test and cortisol tests
I have been asked by my GP Surgery to provide them with the list of blood tests I believe are correct for a patient with Hashimoto's. I don't seem to be able to find it. Would someone be kind enough to show me where I may find it please? Is it the same as under active blood test or are there 'extras'

NDT and Levo combination
Hello, I would like a little discussion. I drink Levo because of Hasimoto. I'm a big man and I need a large amount for my labs to be ok (I'm 120 kg lifting weights). When I drink 200 mcg of levotyroxin my results are ok, but T4 is over the limit. I would like to take some NDT so I don't have to take
