blood test shows high ferritin
just had blood tests done because I have pain in my right pelvic area. Come back with high ferritin. Mines 200 and should be below 150. I googled it and don’t really understand it. Can’t get an appointment with GP for 3 weeks so has anyone on here ever had this result. I’m a bit anxious about it.

I am lost, should I seek a second opinion?
hi, this will be a bit of a long one sorry. I am really confused and don’t know whether to accept my gps answer or go private for a second opinion. My issues started more noticeably in October last year when I started heavily bleeding and having long periods and very short periods of time of not bleeding

Latest blood test - advice please
I would welcome thoughts from the community on my latest blood tests please? I had these taken in August results via Medichecks. I have Hashimotos and the bloods were taken first thing in the morning. Interestingly, my Thyroglobulin antibodies are slightly down from 362 in 2022 to 287 in 2024. Not sure

Advice for blood test timing & last doses (staggered doses + mistimed t3 history)
Two questions.
1) with staggered Levo dosing … best day to test
Current titration was FROM 100 Levo a day (700 a week) to 112.5 a day (775 a week.) Since I only have 100s at this time, I split them in quarters and added 25 on Mon, Wed, Fri: Mon Tue Wed Thurs Fri Sat Sun 125 100 125

low TSH normal t3 and t4
I have been having fatigue, anxiety and weakness for a while now. Blood tests came back this week with 0.03 TSH but normal t3/t4 although both were in the higher end of the range. I have a history of swinging hyper/hypo and have diagnosed nodules. Currently not medicating. Could this result explain my

Dire rheumatology appointment.
Recent GP visit with a mouth full of ulcers brought long standing health issues to a head. I have a long history of health issues since contracting mononucleosis in 1987. Fatigue, dizziness, headaches, migraines, Endometriosis, sleep disorder - hypnogogic hallucinations, sun allergy that began as a rash

Hubby’s Results and some advice please
Hi I am hypothyroid since 2009. My hubby had routine bloods at GP in May showing FT4 slightly under and cholesterol as 6.5 but classed as normal. He has symptoms though, sluggish, always cold, has worn a fleece and shoes and socks most of our wonderful summer, forgetful. I persuaded him to have

T3 Progress - next steps?
Since my last post https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/150772561/levo-up-t3-down I have started taking Thybon Henning to optimise my T3 with some success.
Currently taking 10 mgs T3 at night,
and have dropped my levo from 125 to 100. T3 has gone to 4.7 from 4 but I understand it should

Is this poor conversion?
Hi all, it's been a while since I posted. My thyroid results are just in and these are the results and GP want to speak to me. They were done 1st thing in morning before food and didn't take my 175mg of Levothyroxine that morning. TSH has been 0.05 for years. I think I'm not converting T3 properly now

Adrenal Fatigue 😩
Hi everyone,Was diagnosed with Adrenal Fatigue by the late Dr Peatfield - Dr P. I've had problems ( as I'm sure many of you have) with balancing Adrenal and Thyroid Glands. #I have been taking Nutricolgy Adrenal Natural Glandular - 100 mg per day. It states ingredients = Adrenal Tissue (Bovine Lyophilized

Confusing blood results
I've been on NDT Armour for 14 months, titrating very slowly (1/4grain every 2-3 months). I've got on well with it, having gradual improvements with each increase. I can't get my head around these latest results, my FT4/FT3 is looking similar to where I started in July 2023. Both had increased through

Blood test with reverse T3 and thyroid antibodies
What companies might be best for this test please? however, need a blood draw not a fingerprick draw as it doesn’t suit me.

Insights on 4 years of results?
Hello to everyone on here. Does anyone have any insights to share on my results, please? I'm due another blood test with my GP next week and I have asked for a full thyroid panel, but so far they haven't agreed to that. I asked last year too, but they were only willing to measure TSH. I have read on

Got 1st blood results since starting Ndt, my T4 is down and T3 up, should I increase NDT or try LDN?
Hi, I've been on NDT 2 grains for almost 3 months now. After 3 weeks on it, I started to feel worse & so I started taking full dose first thing and chew tablets now. I've started to feel a bit better in the past 2 weeks and have had a few days where I don't feel like falling asleep and can do a 10 min

What my GP said 🤔
Just got me thyroid test results. TSH 0.01 ( 0.3-5.0) T4 5.7 pmol (7.9-16.0l T3 3.5 (3.8-6.0) These are all below reference range so abnormal. GP will retest in 6 weeks and may consider prescribing Thyroxine if needed. Told me my thyroid is suppressed. How can it be suppressed if the levels are all

Total thyroidectomy
Hi everyone. I had a total thyroidectomy 5 weeks ago today and was wondering if anyone else has had the same operation that I can ask questions about. I felt fine after surgery for around 2 weeks but then hit a brick wall, I was tachycardic, sweating, shaking, palpitations, felt woozy etc and I think

TSH and blocking TRAb
Further to a recent post by HealthStarDust on TRAb results and a discussion with tattybogle and pennyannie as to whether having blocking ABs dominating would give high or low TSH, I posted a question on Elaine Moore forum. The following is her reply :- About 20% of patients who move into remission using
