T3 fallen
I have my private Endo appt next month. Did my MMH blood test last week but as I bought the pack 5 months ago I wondered if there could be a problem with the results. My previous blood test in Feb after starting T3 just before Christmas showed my T3 had risen to 5.9 (3.1-6.8) from 3.9 and my hypo symptoms

Reference ranges
NHS use a range of 7.86 - 14.41 pmol/L when measuring t4. However, every time I've had a private test they use much higher reference ranges of roughly 12-22 pmol/L. Even weirder, my t4 always comes back much lower when NHS tested, and higher when privately. Therefore, it always comes back within range

Who is confused? My surgery or me?
I was asked by the GP to remind him, when I reached 3mg in my tapering, that I should have a synacthen test. I have now done so. However, I am being sent for an ACTH blood test Is this the same thing (I don't think so as I have not been asked to miss the steroid dose and there is no indication that

Why do all my symptoms suggest hyperthyroid if my results show hypo?
Hi everyone! I got my thyroid results about a month ago - first time ever tested. My GP initially wanted to test my thyroid because of these symptoms: sudden severe anxiety, trouble sleeping, shakiness, palpitations. I've also had increased sweating and some diarrhoea (not bad). I've lost some weight

Blood Test Rip-off
I've received an email from privatebloodtests.co.uk which is part of Blue Horizon. They offer traditional blood tests at astronomic prices. No doubt they will have 'offers' but my view is that we should, when possible, boycott these companies. There is great temptation to see more blood tests as better

Serum Free T4 level high
I have hypothyroididm and have had it for years. I used to medicate myself, but can no longer afford to do so. I am now taking 100 ml of levothyroxine. I now seem to hae a problem with high blood pressure, hot flushes and what I call adrenalin punches in the stomach. I would not say I was ill,

recent blood test results
Hi Everyone I recently had a private blood test done through here and the following has been observed by a friend:- My TPO Anti-bodies suggest Hashimotos. My TSH is high - in a healthy person the result is usually around 2. FT4 and FT3 could be higher. VitD better around 100 + Can anyone help.

Monitor my Health results , or lack of them!
Wonder if anyone else has had this ( or got prof.expertise to advise), did the Full Health Screen blood test from the NHS lab so I’d be well equipped to have phone appointment with GP next week re. Thyroid and vit/ min levels, and they only did 2 tests ( HbA1c and cholesterol) others said ‘not enough

T3 blood test - 4 hrs after taking?
Hello there, I’ve been working on getting myself to feel well with the help of this forum for a few years, and most productively in the last 14 months. Vitamin D, B12, Folate, Ferritin all at optimal levels. Was taking 137.5mcg Levo. Was still a poor converter so saw private endo Feb who prescribed

Extreme tiredness with no apparent cause
My 26 year old son has a profound learning disability and autism. He is non verbal with limited understanding and has lived in a lovely residential care home for a number of years. Since the beginning of the year he has become very tired and lethargic, often not leaving his room at all. Staff are having

Over-medicated (Levothyroxine)?
Hello, I wondered if someone could help me? Apologies for posting lots of results below, but I thought it might help with context. I have just received my latest NHS results and I think I may be over-medicated still? Interestingly, I had a dose reduction 6 weeks ago and although my FT4 has reduced,

How do you come down from the pred high?
I wrote what follows as a response to someone else mentioning the pred high but then realised it should have been a new post. So here it is again, edited and with a heading. I seem to feel hyperactive all the time, at the moment, especially if I do exercises. Last night I went out to the local exercise

I had a medical crisis, I didn't die, I wonder why
Last summer I had a medical emergency. The odds were it would kill me but I survived with few life threatening consequences. The problems I had are commonly fatal for 80 year old men. There is a message in my experience which I hope to share with you in this article. It is a bit longer than most

Ferritin
Long time Hashimoto's here. Why do we need to check ferritin, and how is it different than checking iron? Thank you.

Suppressed tsh 0.03 on Liothyronine, is this as much of a worry as consultant says please?
Bit of a long story sorry but I just need a moan with others who undestand. I restarted Liothyronine Jan 23 on nhs but my consultant will not endorse any increase whatsoever. I am just so tired most days it hurts, can't shift my weight unless I starve and unfortunately I don't sleep well so that doesn't

Twins, HCG did anyone get a faint line initially on first pregnancy test?
Just curious, we transferred 2 embryos ivf and I really want twins. Tested today but received a faint line - positive though.. I’ve been reading on here the lines are darker with twins. How true is this? I’ve only started to feel symptoms today since returning from Testing so I’m guessing hormones kicking
