T3 question
I’m currently on T3 only because of bad reaction with levothyroxine. I’ve been on Liothyronine 10mcg twice a day since 11 November. I haven’t been back to the doctors for a thyroid function test since October as I’ve read frequently that on T3 only they go more on symptoms than levels. I no longer have

The Differential Diagnosis of Discrepant Thyroid Function Tests: Insistent Pitfalls & Updated Flow-Chart Based on a Long-Standing Experience
We often see members posting results which, at least initially, are odd and maybe make little sense. This paper recognises and discusses such test results. Quite long and takes some effort to read - but worth it if you are interested. [i]

Trying to Make Sense of Test Results
I had an ultrasound done on my heart today, and was just wondering what information doctors gain from this re
Pulmonary
Hypertension? Also had lung
function
test
where the girl told me that "the exchange of gases" [I presume between my heart and lungs?] was "mild to moderate".

clotting whilst on warfarin for clots in lungs.
I’ve been trying to find out why I’ve had breathlessness for 3 years. In 2021 NHS pulmonary consultant arranged Ct scan abd lung function tests. Lung function tests results said good. Ct scan revealed very mild dry bronchiectasis and very mild emphysema - both too mild to be classed as COPD. Was discharged

Hello from New Zealand
My adult son was diagnosed with hypothyroidism from a routine test after a slight head injury during Covid lockdown. I have not been able to lose weight and so asked my GP for thyroid function test - and sure enough!! So was started on Eltroxin. Lately my usually reasonably well controlled BP went haywire
