Blood test interpretation help
Hi everyone. I’m so glad I’ve found this site! I hope someone can help me with interpreting my blood tests. I was living abroad until recently and went to see the Dr as was struggling to lose weight. He did bloods which all came back as normal except for my TSH which was reported as < 0.0083 (normal

3 am protocol for T3, please tell me about it?
Please could you tell me what I need to know about the 3 am protocol for T3? Does there need to be a gradual transition from split dosing? Anything else I should know? I have been on T3 only for some years and recently have been very tired and depressed, for me the usual symptoms of being hypo. T3

New results after being discharged by endocrinologist.
Hi I will add my previous post but I will also give a quick recap: I first came on with low T4 levels but TSH in range. The doctors did regular tests saying it wasn't being tested properly. I eventually got referred to an endocrinologist. After a while of more testing I was discharged and told that

Test Results Interpretation
Hi, My GP has said my results are stable/ok but when I checked my TSH it looked low. Serum free T4 is 19.9 and Serum TSH is 0.02. Would be grateful for any insights as feeling generally fatigued.

hi, I’ve now been on Levothyroxine 25 since last June. None of my symptoms have changed. GP has just increased it to 50 and said to retest in 8 weeks. I have been asking for increase for quite a while as my level was still in the upper range of normal last test I had in October . My levels had been

Is there any link between vaginal dryness and hashimotos
I have struggled with vaginal dryness, dry eyes and dry nasal area for a few years. I drink plenty so it's not dehydration. My doctor put it down to low estrogen and I am currently using vagifem which has helped most of the time. My question is........ Is there a link between hashimotos and these symptoms

After Some Super Advice on This Forum
Firstly, thank you for all your advice on my last thread, needless to say I took it onboard and proceeded to get another blood test with the advised timings and vitamins etc. So once again I hope I can ask for your advice again, I'll post Januarys and now March's, they look better to me, but as I said

I had a phone consult with someone who I have never met, and declined statins and a reduction in levothyroxine. My T3

Exhaustion may not be thyroid related!
Hi all, just wanted to share my recent experience which came as a complete shock/surprise. So, usual story, feeling exhausted, needing to nap all the time, barely able to function. This feeling has been even worse since new year, barely able to get out of bed. Now, I knew I was a poor converter and needed

Further blood tests
Hi I got more blood tests. The GP got it slightly wrong in that my hair is not coarse, it’s thin and falling out and I have significant slow pulse rate 40-50bpm. The GP was concerned about the low white cell and asked me to repeat and I got the results back yesterday and told - all normal but I don

bizarre turnaround
hello! I posted here about a month ago complaining of lots of issues; dry skin, falling out hair etc, irritable, over emotional. My TSH was 0.8 and lower range T3, ok range T4. Since then I’ve lost 5lbs (diet and exercises) started taking vitamin b complex, vitamin d and a general health vitamin

Percent of range
Since your group likes to go by percent of range could you tell me an example of what makes a good balance on free t4, free t3 and tsh. Should they all fall around 50 percent of the range being used for your particular lab?

Confusing first results on T4/T3
Hi all, I'm reposting this as I didn't get any replies 😊 Please see my first results 6 weeks after introducing T3. I'm on 125mcg of levo and 10mcg of lio. I am very confused because I was certain that my current symptoms were due to being undermedicated! And how can my T4 be top of range again despite

Help Needed with Private Blood Test Results
Hello. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in November 2023 after a year of miserable health. My doctor prescribed 50 mcg levothyroxine (Accord brand) and I started to feel better. In January I had my next blood test (NHS). I had this test late in the morning, after I had eaten, and after taking my medication
