Hashimoto’s (UK)
I am based in the UK. I have Hashimoto’s disease and take both T3 and T4. would someone please be kind enough to decipher my recent bloods? The results have caused my GP to interfere and reduce my T4 because my TSH isn’t registering. I am EXHAUSTED of having the same argument with them explaining

Update on Labs - What is Going On? :-)
Labs done ~7AM - 24 hours after T4 and 12 hours after T3, having stopped biotin 4 days prior. My endo has been good about letting me have needed T3 after being deficient for over a decade with other doctors. I am not sure what to make of the labs since she upped my T3 back in December. I started dosage

Endo appointment and low TSH
Hi all, Please see my results below. My GP is making noise about my suppressed TSH but she's leaving it to my endo, who I have an appointment with on 18th June. They don't know that I take liothyronine as well as levo. I'm not sure whether to fess up or not just as a way to explain the suppressed TSH

Recent blood test – Why do I feel so tired?
Hello, Please could you have a look at my recent blood test results and tell me what could be the cause of my constant tiredness? I find it hard to get out of bed in the morning and often wake up with brain fog. I often wake up during the night to pee. I often feel the need to fall asleep in the afternoon

New GP who understands thyroid!!
Private endocrinologist discharged me back to my surgery as he "could not" treat me with my TSH being back in range, positive TPO in the 300's & ultrasound showing small thyroid (ords) still highly symptomatic, saw another GP at the practice really to ask for a 2nd opinion. New GP listed my symptoms

hashimoto thyroid and T3
I have recently been told by Endocrinologist to stop T3 due to palpitations and atrial fibrillation, to increase T4 to 75mcg. This had been reduced by hospital where I went after collapsing with atrial fibrillation. He says rely on that and lifestyle changes. I feel I have been doing that for the last

In shock, TSH from 20.3 to 0.103!
hello, I posted a while ago as I was getting so concerned at the rate my TSH was increasing, I had increased my levothyroxine gradually to 175mg with no improvement, the last bloods and drs appointment I had I was given instructions to increase to 200mg which I believe is the limit for my weight. by

New to Levo, question about TSH aim
I've been taking Levo 50mg per day for 3 months, and just had the first blood test result back. My TSH is at 2.85, and they are saying that I should stay on this dose and get tested again in a year. The last test before I started medication (January) my TSH was 8.6, T4 12.8. Both were done first thing

More test results to understand
I have now seen an endocrinologist and had another set of tests. My TSH is not measurable at < 0.02, my FT4 is within range at 20.9 (11-22.7) and my FT3 is 5.9 (3.5 -6.5), much higher than it has ever been before. My previous results on 15/04 were TSH 0.02, FT4 23.6 (12-22), FT3 4.7 (3.1-6.8). These

Thyroid test results
I’ve been taking 200mg of thyroxine for most of my adult life. Now the doctors have reduced to 150mg I returned to the doctors to say I felt awful. All my symptoms were returning. So they issued another blood test. They have came back saying my TSH level is too low and reduced my dose even more.
