Need advice on these blood test results - wondering if it might be hypo, but Dr's all say numbers are fine.
I have just stumbled upon this site, and am hoping that you knowledgeable people can help me out.
The short story:
I'm undiagnosed, never been on any thyroid hormones. Feeling unwell for over 2 years - fatigue/tiredness, weight gain, hair loss (decreased hair density on scalp), loss of outer third

Bit confused, latest test results now on Erfa. Could I have an unstable thyroid??
Hi helpful thyroid community. I’ve been on Erfa now for 3.5 months I did another blood test Monday and just have results thru. I’m now taking 60mg very early morning and 30mg lunch time (so timing not ideal if this to keep away from eating!) The October test was just after I upped the doseage from original

1st results since starting Levo - dose advice and restarting IVF
Morning everyone 🙂 Yesterday I had my 1st endo follow up after starting Levo 6 weeks ago. Some of you may remember my IVF was abruptly cancelled when we discovered I was hashi hypo. I am shocked at the results in 6 weeks. Endo has advised to maintain 75 dose but I have swung a bit out of range

Advice on ‘normal’ test results
Hi I’ve recently joined and wanted some guidance on blood tests that my doctors are saying need no action. I went struggling with neck pain and neurological symptoms and they ordered full bloods. In the last two years I’ve gained a huge amount of weight, my face is puffy, and I’ve struggled with running

Recent blood test
My latest test shows Thyroid Stimulating Hormone at 0.12 and Free T4 22.6, I am currently on 100 mgs. Why is the first below range and the second above range?

Hunger advice
I have only recently (2 weeks) started to increase my thyroxine from 75/100 to 100 per day due to recent low T4 for me, T3 was above 50% but TSH was climbing. However, I still experience feeling hungry, particularly at night, when I have already eaten my evening meal. Is this a symptom of being over
