Can this be the start of hypothyroidism?
My friend , who has no diagnosis of thyroid issues, had had bloods done by a functional medicine practitioner and was told their free t3 and free t4 are suboptimal and "need to be observed for any further deterioration ." The results they were given are as follows( ranges given in brackets ); Tsh

Tapering
Forgot to mention in my last post that results from the blood test for my Thyroid ie TSH and FT4 came back as abnormal meaning they were outside the reference range so have had to have my thyroxine medication increased, so decrease of prednisolone and Thyroid levels not being ideal could be reason I

Could anyone tell me the benefit of having both TT4 and Free T4 tested please…just looking at differences in tests and prices please?
Hi, I won’t repeat the question, just wondering if anyone could give me an idea on this please. Obviously a bit of difference between the pricing of the two tests I’m looking at and not sure how helpful that info could be? Im not on anything for thyroid, but tsh has been up and down in past so I keep

Thyroid issues
Hi. My TSH levels have been 0.02 for over a year, yet T3 and T4 have been in the normal range.I have chronic fatigue, reason I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism 20 years ago, and they have reduced my Levothyroxine to 75mg now. I am so concerned that this is going to cause my fatigue to get worse.

US-based, Prospective, Blinded Study of Thyrotropin Receptor Antibody in Autoimmune Thyroid Disease
A rather disappointing paper. First, the full paper is, as so often, behind a paywall. Also, because the the paper doesn't come out with a clear "Yes, the tests are wonderful and reliable." It is quite clear that there is sufficient uncertainty to question all results from these tests. We have had

Advice please on blood results especially possible iron issues.
I would be very grateful for any advice on my recent blood results please. I am concerned that for first time ever MCH and MCHC are just over range. My serum B 12 has historically been at top of range without supplementing. This has now dropped lower although still high in range. Never feel well although

Test results back - within range?
I posted last week that I suspected I was hypo (family history... that and coeliac) and you suggested I go away and get bloods tested. So results are as follows, all 'within range'... Slightly disappointed because I hoped that hypo might explain some of the symptoms I have that are otherwise unexplained

Question on THS and atrophic thyroiditis
I hope you knowledgeable people can help me with learning more to assist me with advocating for my own health. On this forum, it is agreed that THS is not the sole marker on which to base treatment decisions. In the case of a thyroid which is chronically atrophied, is the TSH likely to be of even less

Symptoms of a Hashimoto flare
Dear community I am wondering if you could share your insights. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto after a Covid infection in 2022. My thyroid levels seem "normal" under substitution (recent lab): TSH: 171; fT3: 3.9; fT4: 13.8. However, I have flares that seem very clearly to be autoimmune in nature

The good doctor
I had a GP appointment this morning (double appointment) for a Medication Review. I haven’t had one since pre-Covid when I lived in a different part of the country. I crept into the surgery with fear in my heart as I prepared to explain the ins and outs of NDT. OH came with me as I was in the middle
